Jan Coffey-Olson
CouncillorI arrived in Rosetown in the summer of 1991 as a young, single, United Church Minister from Alberta. Since then, I have made this my home even though I only worked for the church for 10 years of that time. I have also taught the Independent Education class for Rosetown Central High School for about 12 years. I have a husband of 27 years and raised our son who also lives in Rosetown, along with 2 older stepsons, 3 grandchildren, and many good friends. We love to camp and garden in the summers and keep ourselves busy with family, friends and projects the rest of the year. I am involved in local art and drama and am currently serving on the Rosetown Theatre Board. I am also involved in the United Church both locally and in the larger district. At present, I am retired but still substitute teach and occasionally lead worship. My main focus in retiring (besides grandchildren) is writing which has been a side interest for many years. I am thankful for this new opportunity to serve on our Rosetown Council and will work as part of the Council team to make this town a good, fair, and welcoming place to live.

Jason Hunter
CouncillorOn New Year's Day 2001 my family moved from Calgary and chose Rosetown as our home preferring the small-town culture and community to the pace of life in such a large city. Since our arrival I have worked in the IT Department for the local Credit Union where I currently serve as the Manager of Applications and Administration.
I have been active with our Scouts group for since 2003 where I've had the privilege to be a leader, Group Committee member and even served as the Group Commissioner for about 10 years. I also became involved with our local theater group around 2015 where I help with our printed materials and occasionally find my way on the stage where I manage to mostly remember my lines and keep people laughing.
Growing up an "army brat" my family moved often, about every 4 years on average and no matter where we found ourselves, I was always taught that if you had something to offer you should, if someone needed help you gave it and if you weren't willing to try and help fix something then you shouldn't complain about it. When you combine that upbringing with my family's long history of service to others in our communities and country, well then running for council just felt like the natural and right thing to do. I look forward to working with council to leverage our collective knowledge and experiences to make the best decisions for our town that we can.
