It doesn't take much thought to figure out that the driver of this grey Serra is a dog lover. Monty Siekerman spotted this Pugmobile at a stoplight in Ada.
It’s official: Easter House Bed and Breakfast, 508 N. Main St., is the 2017 Ada Area Chamber of Commerce’s business of the year.
David Dellifield, chamber president, made the announcement at the Feb. 15 chamber annual dinner in McIntosh Center.
Accepting the award were owners Mark Hilan and Amy Eddings.
The business is barely one year old, yet the owners have proven worthy of the award through several efforts to promote Ada through their business and being a driving force to launch the Made in Ada Wilson Football Festival.
Want to watch Ada's baseball team play at 5/3 Field in Toledo?
The Ada HS baseball team will play Riverdale High School at 5/3 Field, home of the Toledo Mud Hens, on Tuesday, April 18.
In order to play in the minor league stadium the team must sell 300 ticket vouchers to a Mud Hens regular season game. The vouchers are $12 and may be redeemed for entry into any Mud Hens game during the 2017 season. Persons interested may contact any team member or the baseball coach.
Several other events take place this winter at Ada schools. Here's a summary from the school website.

Meri Skilliter, new Ada school superintendent, talked with members of the Ada Kiwanis Club earlier this week. She joined Ada schools on Jan. 1.
Skilliter told members about the “Every Student Succeeds Act.” In 2015 President Obama signed the Every Student Succeeds Act (or ESSA), an overhaul of federal education law.
Skilliter said, that passed with bipartisan support, ESSA represents a shift from broad federal oversight of primary and secondary education to greater flexibility and decision making at the state and local levels. The law replaces the No Child Left Behind Act.
