Look out your window on the morning of May 8, and you may see more students walking or biking to school than usual.
The Ada Safe Routes to School (SRTS) Team is sponsoring a Bike to School Day on May 8th, in cooperation with the national initiative to get more k-6 students walking and biking to school. K-6 students who participate in the event by biking or walking to school that morning will get a raffle ticket from a Ada SRTS team member on their way to school. Winners will be drawn at the start of school Wednesday morning.
What's going on in Ada in May and June? More than 50 events, in fact, are on the Ada Community Improvement Corp. (CIC) calendar, which covers the next 60 days.

The calendar includes:
• Items of interest to the entire community
• Ada school events
• Ada Public Library events
• Ohio Northern University events
• Public meetings
• Major events later in 2013
• Some general Hardin County events
Bridge Hospice Bereavement Services will be hosting its annual bereavement camp for children, Camp S.T.A.R., June 10-12 from 8:45 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the Brugeman Lodge at Riverbend Park in Findlay.
Camp S.T.A.R., which stands for Special Times Always Remembered, is a three-day bereavement camp for children ages 6-12 who have experienced the loss of a loved one. Campers participate in fun, traditional camp activities combined with grief and loss education. Together, campers realize they are not alone with some of the questions and feeling they have been facing.
