Johnson 'someone to count on'

My family has known Gail Johnson since the early 90s. 

We all attended the same church and live near each other. Gail is trustworthy and has integrity and can be counted on to do what she says she'll do. Gail is always willing to step up and help out a friend.

Gail has the type of personality that when she see's a problem she'll dive in to work at getting it resolved.  I feel Gail would make a strong candidate for a board trustee as she will give it her all to help make Oswego continue to move in the right direction. 

Gail is open to listening to concerns and issues that we have about the community.Have you seen her Facebook page?  You can see her updates as they get posted.  She's going to be at the Holiday Inn Express on March 10th from 4-6pm, come and ask her about your concerns or questions.

Johnson 'leads with integrity and tireless commitment'

When you place your vote in Oswego on April 5, you give voice to your opinions regarding elected officials and policies.

This election is particularly important to the future of our Village.  It is imperative that we elect a candidate that possesses a strong business sense in combination with a genuine interest in the people and programs of our community.

I strongly encourage you to vote for Gail Johnson for Oswego Village Trustee.  I recommend Gail from personal experience in working with her on various teams and committees during the past six years.  

Gail leads with integrity and tireless commitment.   She has an extraordinary ability to build consensus and to foster teamwork. Gail respects individual ideas and opinions and is able to devise an option that everyone can work with.  

Please visit her website atwww.gailjohnsonoswego.com and vote for Gail Johnson – Oswego Village Trustee.

Johnson 'brings out the best in people'

Oswego has much to offer young families like mine: outdoor space, an active park district, vibrant downtown, library system, and good schools. 

We need people who have much to offer too. Gail Johnson has always given back to this community. She has served on various community boards spanning civic, business, and social sectors.

Now Gail wants to give back by serving as an Oswego Village Trustee. I know that her strengths as a negotiator, a successful business owner who has helped other businesses thrive, as someone who brings out the best in people, and as someone with visionary perspective are the ones we need to keep Oswego vital in the years to come. 

Please visit Gail's website for more information www.gailjohnsonoswego.com A vote for Gail on April 5 is a vote to move Oswego forward. I'll be voting early between March 21 and 31at the Oswego Village Hall to show I want that forward progress to happen as soon as possible.

Johnson will be a 'valuable voice in getting the Village Board to work together'

I encourage you to consider voting for Gail Johnson, candidate for Oswego Village Trustee.

I've known Gail for more than 15 years, first as an active member of the church we both attended and later when she stepped in to lead the Oswegoland Park & Recreation Foundation in 2009.

Her efforts on behalf of the Foundation have helped to raise awareness and appreciation of open space and parks for future generations. She spearheaded the Foundation's planting project at Prairie Point Park which brought together families, friends, scout troops and school groups to plant trees and prairie plants. 

She is a long-time Oswego resident, raised her family here and has always taken an active role in community affairs. Personally and professionally, she's someone you can count on who will take the time to consider all aspects of a situation or challenge and find the win-win solution. 

If elected, I have no doubt she will quickly become a valuable voice in getting the Village Board to work together to build an Oswego we can all be proud of. If you'd like to learn more, visit www.gailjohnsonoswego.com. Thank you.
