11 candidates vying for this year's junior fair royalty; crowning is Sept. 8

Two Ada High School seniors are among 11 candidates vying for this year’s Hardin County Junior Fair royalty. The Junior Fair king and queen will be crowned on Tuesday, Sept. 8, at 7 p.m. 

Due to the restricted attendance at the event due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the ceremony will be streamed live to the public on the Hardin County Fair Facebook Page.

Ada’s candidates are Alyssa Wince for queen and Ian Dellifield, for king. Both students were previously named Mid-Ohio Energy Cooperative Ada HS students of the month.

Andrew Fleece of Alger was named to the summer Rhodes State College, Lima, dean's list. To be eligible, students need to have earned a 3.5 grade point average or higher and complete at least six credit hours.

 

Ada High School senior, Alyssa Wince, is the Mid-Ohio Energy Cooperative Ada student of the month for September.

Her activities include being a member of the Ada HS marching band where she is the trumpet and brass section leader. 

She is also in pep band, Varsity Singers, a member of the National Honor Society and Book Club.

Outside of school she participates in 4-H. She is a member of the Hardin County Junior Fair board and is president of the Ada Barnyard 4-H Club.

Alyssa is the daughter of Jim and Jen Wince and Anne Wince and Jeff Reed.

 

You work with what you have. If masks are the thing, then make masks. Ada Middle School art students are creating tie-dye masks. We can imagine that there will soon be a great demand for this product.

You might call it functional art. (From Ada Bulldogs Facebook)

Attention parents of Ada middle school science students –

When you ask, "What did you do in school today?" you might hear this: "Do you know what surface tension is?"

To prove to your child that you are aware of scientific terms, just repond this way: "It's the tension of the surface film of a liquid caused by the attraction of the particles in the surface layer by the bulk of the liquid, which tends to minimize surface area."

Wow, bet you couldn't verbalize that in an impromptu speech if you were called for an explanation. Photos from Ada Bulldogs Facebook.
