Crispus Attucks York Hosts Rotary Club of York for Community Partnership Visit
Crispus Attucks York was honored to welcome our proud community partner, the Rotary Club of York, to our Crispus Attucks York Community Center! The visit began with warm and inspiring welcoming remarks from Rotary Club of York President, Wilda Reahm, who spoke about Rotary’s long-standing commitment to service, collaboration, and strengthening the York community. Her words set the tone for an engaging and meaningful gathering centered on partnership, progress, and shared purpose.
A Partnership Rooted in Shared Purpose
The Rotary Club of York — one of Pennsylvania’s most engaged civic organizations dedicated to service above self — chose our center as the site of their January 28 club meeting. During the visit, attendees heard from Dr. Scott Deisley, Interim Director of the Crispus Attucks York History & Culture Center, about the vision for the new cultural space and how it will amplify York’s African American story through the lens of nearly 100 years of impact.
This partnership exemplifies the profound support organizations in York are giving to the revitalization of community history, culture, and youth-focused programming — united by a shared commitment to civic pride, education, and opportunity.
Sneak Peek at What’s Ahead
In addition to engaging conversation and fellowship, Rotary members enjoyed a sneak preview tour of the new History & Culture Center, offering a first look at the exhibits and spaces that will soon welcome students, families, residents, and visitors from across the region. Excitement is building as the space nears its opening — with finishing touches underway and signage going up, signaling the next chapter of community legacy in York.
Thank You to Our Friends at Rotary
