Ada High School's volleyball team says to switch your purple and gold for pink during annual Volley for the Cure game on Tuesday. Ada entertains Paulding at the game.
Cancer fighters and survivors will be honored during the game and volleyball moms and players will have a bake sale set up. Fans are encouraged to wear pink at the game.
Then, on Friday, Oct. 25, will be a "pink out" football game, focusing on breast cancer. The Ada varsity football team will host Paulding on the 25th and the team invites fans to pack the stands with lots of pink.

Legos climb the walls at Ada elementary this month and the words on the Legos are written by Ada elementary students.
Using the theme “connect” – appropriate for the plastic blocks – students in Kindergarten through sixth grade are understanding what connects them as a class, school and community.
During a focus time earlier this month, each student identified one way that student is unique and one way that student connects to someone else in class.
