FROM BLUFFTON ICON - On Feb 1, 2021, Mercy Health will introduce a consolidated Life Flight Network to handle its air and ground transportation services.

The Bluffton Airport is home to one of the four Mercy Health Life Flight bases involved in the new network. Other bases include a mobile ICU base, plus air bases in Wauseon and Sandusky.

The Life Flight Network will combine and coordinate existing air services of Life Flight, which provides medical transportation services, including critical care transport, with ground medical transportation services provided by LACP and LifeStar.

Here's the fourth in a series of Ada-Bluffton Icon Christmas picture exchanges.

Each day until Dec. 31 on Ada Icon we'll post a holiday lights photo from our neighbor community of Bluffton. And, as a small inset, you'll see the photo from Ada that is posted on Bluffton Icon.

In this installment, the larger photo shows the holiday window art on Luke's, Main Street, Bluffton. The inset shows one of Ada's residential lawn displays, now posted on the Bluffton Icon.

So, you think you know Ada? You'll find these objects on the grandfather's clock in the Ada Public Library reading room.
