Michelle Goslee, organizer of the food drive and craft and vendor sale at the Railroad Depot on Saturday, displays some of the canned food donated by customers. The food was given to the Hardin County Neighborhood Opportunity Center. Due to the current popularity of vendor shows, Michelle has formed the One Stop Shop to organize events for vendors. She signs up vendors, finds a location, pays the rent, and promotes the sale. A dozen vendors were on hand Saturday. The next sale is scheduled from noon until 5 p.m. on Saturday, Dec. 8 at the Depot. Mr. and Mrs. Claus will be on hand to greet the children and listen to their wish lists.

A two-hour ice delay turned into a school cancellation day today (Thursday, Nov. 15) for Ada and many area schools.
The two-hour delay was called at 5:44 a.m. The cancellation announcement was made at 7:41 a.m. At the time of this posting the temperature was 31 degrees with ice-covered roadways.
