HOBY kids learned about community service on Saturday when they assisted in Ada and nearby towns.
Hugh O'Brian Youth Leadership Seminar (HOBY) is a four-day leadership seminar for 208 high school sophomores from northern and western Ohio that is held each year on campus.
The HOBY program inspires students to recognize their leadership talents and apply them in becoming effective, ethical leaders in their homes, schools, workplaces and communities.

Roger Guyton, who served during the Cuban Missile Crisis, was honored for his service when he attended the Flag City Honor Flight during a busy 24 hours last week.
He and 82 other veterans, along with their guardians, left Toledo Airport, flew into Baltimore, where a police escort wisked them to D.C.
The group, from northwest Ohio and southeast Michigan, stopped to see the World War II, Korean, Vietnam, and Air Force memorials.
The cement is poured, soon the sides will go up on the 40x80 foot addition to Grace Gospel Church. The new fellowship hall will provide space for children's ministries. The multipurpose area will be large enough to host outreach events and church dinners. (Monty Siekerman photo)
