In this episode of The Rotary Spark Podcast, we welcome Adam Reese, a dedicated member of the Bricktown Rotary Club. Originally from Gotebo, Oklahoma, Adam’s Rotary journey took off when he earned a scholarship that led him to join the organization in Denton, Texas. His story is one of commitment and community impact, shaped by a strong family legacy in auctioneering and a deep passion for service. Adam shares how his experiences across different Rotary districts have influenced his perspective and how he found a strong connection with the Bricktown Club during the pandemic.
We also explore the far-reaching impact of Rotary’s mission, showcasing service projects that embody the spirit of "service above self." From modernizing a fruit drive fundraiser in North Texas to providing fresh produce for local shelters, Adam highlights the creative ways Rotarians make a difference. The conversation extends beyond the U.S. to Guatemala, where partnerships with local Rotary clubs have helped rebuild schools and construct a collegiate dormitory, proving that service not only transforms communities but also enriches those who give their time and effort.
As Rotary Clubs continue to evolve from traditional meetings to globally connected service hubs, Bricktown Rotary is gearing up for its next international project in Bucerias, Nayarit. This initiative will focus on supporting families and children through education and shelter efforts. Stay engaged with Bricktown Rotary and District 5750 through digital platforms, and be sure to mark your calendar for the upcoming Days of Wine and Rotary event on May 2nd. Join us in making a meaningful impact while strengthening the bonds of service and fellowship.
