Lt. Col. Dr. Brad Wenstrup will be the guest speaker of the Highland County TEA Party at 8 p.m. Monday, Feb. 13. The event will be at the Hi-TEC Center on North High Street in Hillsboro.

Wenstrup is a Republican candidate for Ohio's Second Congressional District.

"I can't wait to share my vision of principled conservative leadership for southwest Ohio," Wenstrup said.

Wenstrup, 53, is set to face incumbent Rep. Jean Schmidt, R-Loveland, and U.S. Air Force veteran Fred Kundrata in the March 6 primary election.

Wenstrup is familiar with Highland County, having owned property in the Rocky Fork Lake area for several years.

According to his website, http://usabrad.com, Wenstrup was born and raised in Cincinnati. He had his medical training and surgical residency in Chicago and after practicing on his own for a few years, he has been a practitioner with Wellington Orthopaedics. He has been treating patients in southwest Ohio for more than 24 years.

"I bring a set of skills that very few in Congress have," Wenstrup told The Highland County Press during a recent interview at the newspaper office. "I have owned my own business. I have almost 25 years in health care and almost 14 years in the military. Everything I do in my adult life is about leadership. … So few in Congress have real-world experience."

Wenstrup talked about the core values associated with leadership, saying, "The Army has an acronym for 'leadership:' Loyalty, Duty, Respect, Selfless service, Honor, Integrity and Personal Courage (LDRSHIP)."[[In-content Ad]]
