The Buy Ada First Committee will hold the next cash mob on Thursday, Aug. 28, from 10 a.m. to noon at the Ada Flea Market on Main Street.
A cash mob is like a flash mob, but instead of singing or dancing, cash mobbers join together to support their local economy by visiting and making purchases at a selected local business.
“Participation is easy, tell your friends, show up, make a purchase large or small and celebrate your local community. Join in the fun and give a local business a boost,” said Heather Cox, of the committee.
