Adena Offering

Sports Physicals and Wellness Exams

As many parents and young athletes know, it’s a standard requirement to get a sports physical before starting any new school sports season. Whether your student is in grade school or college, sports physicals are necessary to reduce sports-related injuries, discover underlying health issues, and help prevent any existing conditions that could lead to serious or even fatal physical issues.

To help student athletes and parents, Adena offers convenient opportunities for sports physicals through its wellness exams at Adena Pediatrics and Adena Family Medicine. Simply bring in your school sports paperwork and your Adena physician will review and sign it as part of your child’s wellness exam. It’s easy, and most insurance will cover this under one annual wellness visit, meaning no extra fees...

Grassland CRP Signup

Signup for the Grassland provisions of the Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) will run through May 13, 2022.

This is a working grasslands provision of CRP that allows landowners to offer hay and/or pasture acres that will remain in forage production for a 10 or 15 year contract period (subject to certain restrictions during the nesting season of March 1 through July 15). While this program benefits acreage being used for hay and pasture, the program can also apply to fields simply being maintained in grass cover.

To discuss the program in more detail or to make an appointment to talk about the program, call the Jackson-Vinton-Scioto-Pike FSA Office at 740-286-5208 extension 2 or 740-259-3075 extension 2.
