The story of this delightfully charming place we call Ada, actually began well before Rix arrived in 1821.  Learn about the indigenous peoples, the importance of the rivers, and the arrival of the fur traders.  Then, as we stroll, you’ll hear how Ada and Ada Township grew from a rural, agrarian community into today’s thriving business center, supporting 13,000 residents.  We will explore the recently renovated village of Ada with its new public amphitheater and riverfront park, as well as a mix of “just opened" retail, restaurants and residential options.
