Orange shirt day in the Ada park - It's a HOBY day
Hugh O'Brian Youth Leadership Seminar (HOBY) returned to Ad last week.
HOBY is a four-day leadership seminar for over 200 high school sophomores from northern and western Ohio held June 9-12 at Ohio Northern University, according to Katie Ferren, co-director of Community Service.
The HOBY program inspires students to recognize their leadership talents and apply them in becoming effective, ethical leaders in their homes, schools, workplaces and communities.
This year there were 212 HOBY Ambassadors in town. Several worked at the depot, which include these views taken by Ken Collins.
