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.
