Since taking the reins of the Ada Icon and Bluffton Icon in September 2021, my time has passed in this fashion: long days and incredibly fast weeks and months. I’m still introducing myself as the “new Fred”—meaning former editor-owner Fred Steiner—and “How’s it going at the Icon?” has become a familiar greeting.
It’s going great: I’m learning something new and meeting someone new every day.
If you want to see a specific topic covered on the Icon, here’s how:

As an enthusiastic if fairly timid cyclist, I was interested to find a list of bicycle safety safety tips in the Icon’s inbox from the Allen County Health Department. With my “step through” ladies’ frame and wicker basket, I probably resemble Miss Gulch from the Wizard of Oz, minus the bright-eyed terrier captive. In a town the size of Ada, a bike is a great transportation option. In the days of $4/gallon gas, it’s looking even better.
