Over the last 12 or so years, I’ve been able to establish the Ada Film Club at Ada High School. What began as a single meeting with 12 kids has now grown to a group of 80 students, two advisors (myself and Christina Bowden) and 10-15 meetings a year.
I would like to take an opportunity to voice my opinion on an issue that impacts the Village I have called home for the last 21 years (I am 21 years old). In January of this year, I was sworn in as an Ada Village Councilor. I looked forward to representing my community and surrounding myself with people who want the best for their community.
After four and a half incredible years, it’s time for me to step away as Director of the Ada Area Chamber of Commerce.
When I accepted this role, I never imagined just how much it would shape my life. Together, we grew events, strengthened community engagement, built new partnerships, celebrated local businesses, and created opportunities to showcase everything that makes Ada such a special place. Watching our community continue to grow has been one of the greatest privileges of my career.
Well over 100 years ago, the Sigma Phi Epsilon fraternity, Ohio Alpha chapter, notably, pioneered the construction of the first fraternity house in the country, specifically built for fraternity use; a piece of magnificent history and point of pride for Ohio Alpha, Greek Life, Ohio Northern University, and Ada.
FROM ADA WAR MEMORIAL PARK FACEBOOK__June 29: Good morning. We hope everyone had a great weekend. We would like to thank Ann Donnelly, Pyrotecnico and all the sponsors for a fabulous fireworks show. We would also like to thank all of the food trucks that came out to serve us delicious food.
Starting in September, we'll start our planning for next year's event. We would love to add more activities in the park during the evening hours before fireworks start. If there are any groups that have games they would like to share, we would love to add you to our festivities.
