We admit, we've tossed viewers some softball "where is it" photos. So, let's move this quiz up a couple notches.

So, you think you know Ada? Okay, where is this? Our only hint: Not on the ONU campus.

Answer tomorrow.

From 1 to 3 p.m. at Dial-Roberson Stadium

A Hardin County food distribution event takes place from 1 to 3 p.m., Tuesday, Aug. 25, at the Dial-Roberson Stadium on the ONU campus, according to Jason Aldrich.

Enter on Klingler Road. To received food persons must be 18 or older, have a valid photo ID and proof of residency, be at or below 230 percent of the federal poverty guidelines and sign and eligibility to take food home form.

In July, the Ada visit resulted in the distribution of 35,900 pounds of food passed to 133 families.

Members of the Ohio National Guard loaded vehicles with food during the two-hour period. Their volunteer efforts are part of their mission assisting food banks across Ohio.

Summer series focusing on The Remington Walk on the ONU campus

AT THE BOTTOM OF THE STORY -

Summer is a great time to explore the art spread across the Ada community – especially for viewers unable to visit art galleries elsewhere in Ohio.

As a weekly series, The Icon will feature the art located on The Remington Walk on the Ohio Northern University campus. For some viewers, this series is familiar. For others, it may be a first-time experience. 

Either way, it’s an opportunity to take a walk and view some art that is uniquely Ada. The Walk is spread through campus and may be viewed by following the ONU walking path, beginning near Affinity Village, west of The Freed Center.
