For over 40 years, the Ada Schools have been hosting Music Feast, a competition for show choirs. The event started with Lynn Knoble in the ‘70s and has grown to be one of the "kick off" show choir competitions in Ohio. It is a “music feast” for the ears and, with the help of the Ada Music Boosters, feeds all the performers.
On Saturday, November 12, the 2022 edition will include daytime performances from 9:30 a.m.-4:00 p.m., with the Ada Varsity Singers appearing at 2:45 p.m. Daytime awards will be presented at 4:00 p.m.
In the evening, final performances will take place from 6:00-9:15 p.m., ending with awards. (Schedule attached)
Show choirs are musical ensembles that combine choral singing with choreographed dancing. Ada vocal music teacher Scott Henning explains that show choirs feature “high school students musically gifted with good voices, dance ability. They essentially put on a mini musical.”
On Monday, November 7, a ballroom full of Ada dignitaries as well as those taking on new roles in the community gathered to celebrate the “Town & Gown” synergy that is vital to the Village of Ada. The centerpiece of the annual event is the introduction of the Distinguished Citizen of the Year, with 2022 honors going to Deb Curlis, who is currently the director of Beatitudes Community Center and who stepped down as the director of the Ada Area Chamber of Commerce in March 2022.
I just wanted to take a moment to express my appreciation for the wonderful work that the librarians, staff, and volunteers do at the Ada Public Library!
