More than 120 fruit baskets will be delivered on Tuesday afternoon, Dec. 20, to senior citizens, shut-ins, and people with disabilities.
Members of the Ada Church of Christ and First United Methodist Church will distribute the baskets to those living at home, Yorktown Apartments, Vancrest, Mennonite Memorial Home and elsewhere, according to Dana Walters. She has headed the project for many years.

How much construction has there been in Ada this year?
The zoning board has approved 48 projects, some as small as fences, one as large as the $4 million solar array on campus.
Three new houses have been built (two of them in the 300 block of West Lima Avenue, pictured) and a duplex. An addition to the east side of Associated Plastics was valued at a quarter million dollars.
Overall, the educational and industrial projects won out over new residences.
NOTE FROM HARDIN COUNTY SHERIFF'S OFFICE FACEBOOK - We have been informed of a post claiming to be from our office concerning a mother in Hardin County who stabbed her children. We have no reports of nor are we investigating any such crime. When you click on it, it is a virus. If you receive such a post DO NOT CLICK ON IT. Thank you.
Spotted on a Hancock County car driving south on Main Street in Ada. An appropriate plate to see just after the election when Americans were free to vote for many government officials from local to federal levels. This driver is a parachutist.

It was Christmas at ReStore on Friday evening with free gifts, free wrapping, and Santa.
Many children were there to choose from a slew of gifts donated to ReStore. Many "elves" helped wrap the presents. Santa heard wishes from the kids. Cookies and punch were available.
Many youngsters (and adults, too) left with smiles on their faces. Christmas will be happier this year thanks to the givers and staff at ReStore.
