The Icon wants to know what viewers think of when you think of the Icon.
To discover the answer, for the next six weeks, the Icon tosses out a weekly question for viewers to ponder.
The viewer offering the best answer for each week’s question will win this week’s cap.
Here’s this week’s question:
"If the Icon was an animal, what kind of animal would it be? Please offer a brief explanation of why you think the Icon is the animal you mention."

The Ada Presbyterian Church is the oldest religious organization in the village, dating back 175 years.
It was organized as a religious society in August, 1841 at Huntersville, Ohio, a small village located about four miles southeast of Ada. In 1855 the congregation moved to what was then known as Johnstown (now, Ada) where they met in an old frame school house.
