By Amy Eddings It’s the last day on the job as a dispatcher for the Ada Police Department for Doris Essex. As of midnight tonight, the department will no longer directly dispatch its officers to answer calls for help. The Hardin County Sheriff’s Office will be taking all those calls.
The sheriff’s office has already been handling Ada’s police dispatching services overnight, from midnight to 8 a.m. That shift in responsibility took place in July. The stroke of midnight marks the completion of this transition.
Ada High School and Ohio Northern University sports fans may now keep up with all Bulldog and Polar Bear sports on the Icon.
The Icon has a special calendar that lists all AHS and ONU athletic events. To view the calendar place your curser on the "Calendar" from the black horizontal scroll bar on the home page.
A drop down "Sports Calendar" will appear. Click on it and a sports calendar will open. The calendar lists all fall sports.
Scouting added a lot of new members in Ada during a meeting Wednesday in the school cafeteria.

Standing by the poster, which shows the many Scouting activities, are Don Sparr, (left), Cubmaster of Pack 124 since 2006, and Adam West , leader of the Bears (third graders).
Don said all boys from first through fifth grade can join the local pack at any time by calling him at 419-634-5049 or at [email protected].
