The annual Ada FFA banquet was held Thursday March 26th in the cafeteria at Ada High School.

During the meal, Morgan Roberts presented the annual slide show. The slide show was the highlight of the evening. It gave parents, as well as community members, a chance  to see what the FFA really does throughout the year.

Each year our chapter recognizes those who have helped the chapter in a special way.

About 125 people enjoyed an Easter dinner at ReStore on Tuesday evening, including Agnes Crates (left) and her friend Rachel Temple.

Now, if you ask Agnes her age, she quickly and proudly responds: "one hundred and one AND A HALF."

Yup, she up and about and happy with life, physically able and sharp as a tack.
