Ada Exempted Village Schools announced its 2018-2019 program year policy for free and reduced-price meals for students unable to pay the full price of meals or milk served under the National School Lunch and School Breakfast, After School Care Snack or Special Milk Program.
Each school office and the central office has a copy of the policy, which may be reviewed by any interested party.
Ed Lentz of the Hardin County extension office tells how to control Japanese beetles, which are now prevalent in the Ada area. He writes:
Control options for Japanese beetles can be as easy as removal by hand if populations are low. The removal of the first beetles that arrive in an area will often reduce populations. These early beetles act as scouts and inform other beetles of good feeding areas.
Japanese beetle traps generally are not an effective control method. The pheromone bait used in these traps may actually bring more beetles to an area than are captured in the trap.

Ohio Northern University is currently registering organizations, businesses and residents for its fifth annual Ada Community Engagement (ACE) Day to be held from 10 a.m. to noon on Saturday, Aug. 18. Friday, Aug. 3, is the deadline to register.
A partnership with the village of Ada, the ACE Day program provides opportunities for ONU’s first-year students to not only engage with the community but also contribute to the village’s beautification.
An “ACE site” is any community organization, business or individual that has a need and would be willing to provide a service project for ONU students.
