The Ada Kiwanis Club served about 600 meals on Saturday during the 66th annual Pancake/Sausage Day at the Ada Schools cafeteria during the breakfast and lunch hours.
This is a major fundraiser for the service club, which is known for helping youth.
Serving began at 7 a.m. and, yes, there were diners waiting at the door at that early hour on a Saturday morning.
The newly-formed Ada Historical Society will meet at 6:30 p.m. on Monday at the Ada Public Library. All of those interested in helping organize the Society are welcome To attend.
Earlier, the Society organizers thought that the first annual membership dinner would be held on Monday, but the dinner has been postponed until May. The meeting on Monday will involve making plans for the dinner and its membership drive. All of those who attend the May dinner and join the Society will be considered charter members.

The young and young-at-heart are in for a treat when the village swimming pool opens on May 26, the Saturday before Memorial Day.
Construction on the million dollar improvement began last fall, progressed through the winter, and will be ready when warmer weather and sunshine arrive in late May.
Here is what swimmers can look forward to:
A waterpark with a waterfall, water cannons, soaking bench, spray hoops, jets of water squirting out, and a tumbling water bucket, if you want to get extra wet.
