Today the Ada Area Chamber of Commerce and Village of Ada are decorating the Depot and surrounding park for the holidays, as well as for the December 3 celebration of Merry on Main.

Merry on Main is an Ada tradition that brings family activities to downtown Ada and Depot Park.
Ada and other Hardin County locations have scheduled blood drives assist the American Red Cross and help keep the blood supply from dropping ahead of the holidays.
The Red Cross is urging blood donors of all types and those who have never given before to book a time to give blood or platelets now. People of all blood types are needed, especially platelet donors and those with type O blood, blood products that are critical to keeping hospitals ready to help patients depending on transfusions in the weeks ahead.
