The 2022 Hardin Leadership class has been challenged to design and conduct a Class Community Project (CCP), to be completed by the end of their program year. Here are their plans and a question, where do you fit in?
The Hardin Leadership 2022 class chose four nonprofits to assist by working at the agencies:
Heartbeat of Hardin County
Love, Inc.
New Hope Shelter
Safe Haven.
Also, Hardin Leadership 2022 chose five agencies to support financially and as volunteers:
Claire Vaubel, a member of the Ada Rotary club, was recently honored as a Paul Harris Fellow by virtue of her gift of $1,000 to The Rotary Foundation. The honor is named for the founder of Rotary International.
It’s not uncommon for Stacey Hensley, director of the Alger Public Library, to hear people say, “I didn’t know Alger had a library!” However, with a population of under 900, the fact is the library at 100 Wagner St. has an outsized impact on its community and also serves as the USV district library.
Ohio’s Broadband and Cable Association recognized Lt. Governor Jon Husted with the inaugural Champion of Broadband Award during a special ceremony at Ohio Northern University in Ada on June 29.
The award has been established to recognize Ohioans who are leading advocates of broadband connectivity in the state. Executive Director of OCTA David Koren said that Husted “has been a true champion for the expansion of quality, high-speed internet connectivity to unserved Ohioans.”
Soroptimist International of Kenton/Hardin County recently held a girls night out. The group attended The Ohio Presidents: Surprising Legacies at the Allen County Museum followed by dinner at Old Barn Out Back.
Attached photos show a few members from Soroptimist International of Hancock County.
Soroptimist was formed in 1921 in Oakland, California, at a time when women were not permitted to join service organizations. The name, loosely translated from the Latin, means best for women.
Terry Miller, a 1972 Ada High School graduate, has lived a versatile life of adventure, from Vietnam veteran to policeman to car-racing Florida professor. Teaching has allowed him to pursue his great passions of auto racing and the study of criminology.
Born in Atlanta, he moved with his family to Ada in 1960 and grew up with three sisters and their parents, George and Louise. George was a long-time Ohio Northern University education professor who earned a degree from Duke in aeronautical engineering.
