Ada Girl Scouts have big summer plans. Hardin County Girl Scouts are taking part in the GSWO Community Challenge & Change Project, which is a USDA grant funded program that asks the girls to develop a project that addresses a community need.
The girls have determined that Ada kids need more activities that encourage healthy lifestyles, promote creative learning, and role model good decision making. They designed an idea for a children’s program that would take place at the park.
The Hardin County Chamber and Business Alliance has provided the Icon with this fun filled calendar of events for June and into the summer. All this information and more can also be found at www.hardinohio.org .
