Ada Cub Scouts recently had an musical experience to remember.
The Scouts were introduced to steel drums by Dr. Sarah Waters, who teaches applied percussion, steel drum band, percussion ensemble, conducting, African and American Music at Ohio Northern University.
Dr. Waters described the steel drums to Ada Cub Scouts (from left) Alex Rockhill, Tristen Dalton, Dylan Hartman, Connor Daugherty, Robby Waters, Xander Wells and Roman Snyder.
Her own steel drum experience includes being a member of the “All-Star Steel Drum Band,” which performed at PASIC in Austin, Texas.

What changes have you seen in automobiles during the past four decades?
Cars today last longer, have better gas mileage, are more friendly to the environment, and are more comfortable.
What have your duties been at Cole Motors?
I assist customers when they pay their bills, do the daily bookkeeping and tax accounting, and answer phones.

Tom Lehman has been a leader in the Boy Scout program in Ada for 30 years, encouraging positive growth and leadership among our local youth as they prepare to meet the world. He is also the commander of the Ada American Legion Post.
When did the Ada Scout troop begin and when did you get involved?
The troop here was founded here in 1917. I came on board in 1985 because the pack leader at the time had just moved from Ada.
How many boys and young men have been involved in Scouting during your tenure?
Oh, I don't know, lots.
