We voted to reconsider the Keeping Hardin Co. Beautiful at our next meeting when more information can be given to the members. We also voted to help at the Kenton YMCA Triathlon on Sat. July 26. Club members can work at the event and participate when their age group is up. This year they are having it for youth and adults.

“Art education for me is all about the students. I am there to encourage them in their art making, introduce them to old and new mediums and their uses, share artists’ lives and styles of art with them. Young artists and their enthusiasm are why I am in the classroom.”
These words are the credo of Jacque Sperling, teacher, encourager, guider, eternal cheerleader. Jacque will be retiring from her art classroom at Ada Schools in a couple short weeks.
Born and raised on an Ada farm, Jacque attended Ohio Northern University and was interested in geology and the sciences but decided upon art education for her degree.
The Ada Barnyard Farmers 4-H Club met on Sunday, April 27 at 3 p.m. The meeting was called to order by President Alexis Amburgey. The Pledge of Allegiance was led by Melia Samtillanez and the 4-H Pledge was led by Liam Boulanger. Secretary Shelby Hazelton called roll, and 17 members were present.
There was an introduction of visitors and the minutes of the previous meeting were read and approved. Treasurer Brice Ferguson gave the treasurer’s report. The advisors then gave a report. Members are to sign up for committees if they have not already.
