At its regular weekly meeting on Thursday, April 4, Ossian Rotary will hear from Jeff Stringer, Wells County Commissioner, District 3.
Stringer and his family moved to Wells County in 2008 and has since been involved in several business and building projects. Stringer says, “I was honored to be caucused in as the District 3 County Commissioner in 2021. My goals, as a commissioner, were and continue to be: 1) bring transparency to county activities, 2) recruit businesses to Wells County. 3) work to ensure taxpayer funds are used wisely and effectively, 4) help structure department boards, so they are active participants in the processes for which they govern and manage spending.”
Going forward, he says he will focus on limited and wise spending while continuing to work on Economic Development, opening Wells County to businesses that help retain our young people. He says a goal is to continue to fight for what’s right, doing it with full transparency. Stringer says he will listen to the citizens to make sure they are heard, and their concerns and needs are met. He says he considers it an honor to serve and will continue to serve the people of the county and their well-being.
Anyone is welcome to attend Ossian Rotary this Thursday morning, at 7:30 at First Baptist Church of Ossian, 1001 Dehner Drive for this program.

Ossian Rotary is a small part of a larger organization, Rotary International, which was founded almost 120 years ago in Chicago. Ossian Rotary is a group of people with a desire to meet new people, network, get involved and make a difference in Ossian and the surrounding community. Each week we have a different speaker, usually business experts, political and civic leaders, and entrepreneurs, who help us stay informed on topics that are relevant to our community.
