In Rotary, we believe that strong communities are built through understanding, connection, and shared purpose. This month’s theme, Economic and Community Development, reminds us that service begins with learning — learning how our community works, what it needs, and how we can make a difference together.
The Rotary Club of Edmond recently embraced that spirit of learning through a Rotary Rotation at the brand new Edmond City Hall and the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation (OSBI) Forensic Science Center. Members had the opportunity to see how city planning, infrastructure, public safety, and innovation all come together to strengthen Edmond’s future. At City Hall, we gained a deeper appreciation for the careful planning and collaboration that support a growing community. At OSBI, members learned how investments in science and technology enhance safety and create opportunities that ripple throughout the local economy. Each visit helped us see new ways that Rotary can align our service with the needs and priorities of our city.
Each experience this month deepened our understanding of Edmond, its systems, its people, and its heart. And with that understanding comes purpose. Together, we continue to live out Rotary’s commitment to Service Above Self and Unite for Good, using what we learn to serve more effectively every day.
