Representatives of the Ada Library will be walking around Ada downtown Tuesday between noon and 1 p.m. passing out free books to non-readers and people who don't enjoy reading, according to Amanda Bennett, director of the library.
It's all part of the 2013 World Book Night.
"We will be passing out 20 copies of Tina Fey's Bossypants (a funny autobiography of the actress' life) in the hopes of getting more adults interested in reading," said Bennett. "The books are free because authors have foregone their royalties to make this possible, this is also possible through the generosity and hard work of many volunteers!"
If only magnolias would bloom all year. The tree on the corner of the Ada Presbyterian Church shows off each year about this time. And who cares that you can't see the town through the trees.
The Ohio Northern baseball team will play in Progressive Field, home of the Cleveland Indians, on Wednesday, April 24, at 2 pm against Case Western Reserve.
Teams from Ohio Northern University’s Department of Technological Studies garnered two gold awards and one bronze during the National Robotics Challenge at the Veteran’s Memorial Coliseum in Marion, Ohio, from April 11-13.
The first gold award was captured by an ONU team that designed, fabricated, programmed and fully documented a robotic work-cell that utilized a raw materials parts feeder, conveyor, CNC turning center, KUKA robot, and Allen Bradley PLC to autonomously control and manufacture finished chess pieces.
