Hey, Warrington! I’m Ruth Schemm, and I’m running for re-election as your Warrington Supervisor in 2025.

I’ve been involved in the township since 1996, starting as a member of the Park and Rec Board. Seven years later, I worked alongside other volunteers to get a $3 million Open Space Referendum approved, which helped protect 1,000 acres of township land and brought in $6.5 million in grants for trails and open space projects.

In 2018, I was appointed to the Board of Supervisors, and in 2019 I was elected. Since then, we’ve accomplished a lot, including:

• Designing and building a new police station after two years of public meetings

• Adding a canine unit to the Police Department

• Securing safe drinking water for all residents by selling the Water and Sewer Authority to North Wales Water Authority

• 3 years of no charge for monthly water bills

• Completing all phases of Lion’s Pride Park, which is now recognized as a PA destination park!

• Adding miles of trails toward the goal of “Walkable Warrington Neighborhoods”

My faith has always inspired me to lead with compassion, integrity, and a deep commitment to building community. I believe in the power of dialogue and I work to find common ground across party lines to create solutions.

I’ve had the privilege of learning from many people throughout my education and career, including working as a health professional in Philly and later as an educator and administrator at 3 universities. I’ve served in leadership roles at the local, state, and national levels.

Right now, I’m the Chair of the Board of Directors for a non-profit focused on equine-based, out-of-school programming. See https://worktoride.net/media-news/

I’m running again because I believe in good government: listening to residents, finding solutions, and working together to create a shared vision for our future. I’m committed to serving Warrington residents and making sure everyone has a voice in the process. I’d love your support!
