Four members from the Toledo Zoo visited Ada last week. They put on a program about conservation and care of animals as well as telling about strides made at the zoo in recent years.
The nearby zoo is considered one of the foremost zoos for polar bears, and ONU's mascot Klondike was glad to hear that.
One of the polar bear moms there gave birth to her seventh cub in December. If all goes well, the baby bear will be seen by zoo-goers later this summer.
During the week of Monday, May 2, through Saturday, May 7, Liberty National Bank will have locked containers at the bankd for individuals to drop off unwanted paperwork to be destroyed.
This is a free service to the community to help fight the growing concern of Identity Theft.
Accoridng to the bank, it is estimated that as many as 9 million U.S. residents have their identities stolen every year.
The containers will be available during office hours, Monday through Saturday. Please limit the shred to 5 boxes, no larger than 20-inches wide by 10-inches high.
More than 200 vehicles passed through the Drug Take-back sites in Ada, Forest, and Kenton Saturday morning where volunteers collected hundreds of pounds of unused prescription and over the counter medications for disposal.
The event was a cooperative effort of the North Central Ohio Solid Waste District, Hardin Memorial Hospital, The Hardin County Sheriff's Office, The Forest Police Deptment and the Ohio Northern University College of Pharmacy.
More hanging baskets will grace Main Street this year. And, ONU will do its part to add to the beauty of Main Street for pedestrians and motorists.
People like the grand floral display. The Village has had many positive comments about them since the project began two years ago. Each year the number of baskets has increased, thanks to generous donors.
The large, multicolored baskets are well cared for by Cheryl Geer of the street department, who is a master gardener. She has some help from Jamie Hall, assistant village administrator who has an extensive background in horticulture. A dab of fertilizer helps, too.
