Some thoughts, photos and a neat video from Friday

All kidding aside, it was the real “town and gown” event.

Before we ring your doorbell for Halloween, let’s revisit Friday’s world-record football toss attempt.

It involved all Ada school classes from 2019 to 2032, more ONU students and faculty than you could count, just about every village official you could name plus a supporting community cast who wouldn’t have missed it for the world-record setting event it was billed to be.

To help set the stage, imagine bussing nearly 1,000 Ada students from the school to the football stadium. That started at 11:30 a.m., with kick off – in this case, pass off – slated for 2 p.m.

St. Rita’s Medical Center will host The 2019 Palliative Care and Hospice Symposium, focusing on presentations and discussion on palliative and hospice care and dispelling the myths that surround these services.

The event is  Wednesday, Oct. 30, at the UNOH Event Center,  450 N Cable Road, Lima. Registration begins at 7:15 a.m., with  presentations take place from  7:45 a.m. to  4 p.m.

Breakfast and lunch are provided to those who attend. Additional registration and agenda is at Eventbrite.com, or by calling 419-226-9353.

Mercy Health has announced the expansion and enhanced access to urology care in the Lima region with the addition of new urological specialists at St. Rita’s Medical Center.  

Bradley Buck, MD, Daniel Murtagh, MD; Omar Khan, MD, and Hesham Mostafa, MD; have partnered with Ignacio Sarmina, MD, and the team at Mercy Health – St. Rita’s Urology. 

Urological health focuses on diseases of the urinary tract, including kidneys, ureters, and bladder, and range from lack of proper function to cancer. Using the latest techniques and most advanced levels of care, Mercy Health – St. Rita’s Urology treats all urological issues.

This year's fall colors are extraordinary.

By definition autumn leaf color is a phenomenon that affects the normal green leaves of many deciduous trees and shrubs by which they take on, during a few weeks in the autumn season, various shades of red, yellow, purple, black, blue, orange, magenta, and brown.

One way to appreciate Ada's folliage turning from green to reds, yellows and its wide assortment of other colors is to view a short video from the Ohio Northern Unviersity Art and Design Facebook.
