March Meeting Highlights

We had a lively meeting on March 2, covering all essential business matters and featuring two guest candidate speakers who shared valuable insights with the group.

Guest Speakers

• Jerrad Christian – Candidate for U.S. House of Representatives in Ohio’s 12th District

Jerrad spoke about his upbringing in Ohio, his service in the Navy from 2002 to 2007, and outlined his goals if elected to Congress. To learn more about Jerrad and ways to support his campaign, please visit his website at christianforohio.com. Jerrad previously ran against Balderson two years ago. He has spent time in Holmes County, participated in local parades, and enjoyed an afternoon at the fair with us. It was wonderful to welcome him back, and we are fortunate to have such a strong candidate running in the 12th District.

• Scott Grund – Candidate for the Ohio House of Representatives, 98th District

Scott shared his experiences growing up in Ohio, his professional background, and his aspirations for serving in the Ohio House. For more information about Scott and ways to support his campaign, please visit:  https://substack.com/@scottgrund
