Todd Kleismit, executive director of that commission, will host the Dayton listening session to share information about the work of the commission, as well as to hear from Ohioans about what they hope to see in the commemoration and lead up to July 4, 2026.
The commission was tasked with planning, encouraging, and coordinating the commemoration of the 250th anniversary of the founding of the U.S. when that anniversary hits in 2026, according to the Ohio Legislative Service Commission.
For those planning to attend Wednesday, RSVPs to jengle@ohiohistory.org are requested, but not required.
