 Ida Freeman Elementary School is the recipient of 26 new books.  The Edmond Rotary Club meets almost every Wednesday of the year, and at each meeting the club donates a book in honor of the weekly speaker.  This gift of books to the Ida Freeman Elementary Media Center has been taking place for 20 years.  It was originally started by club member, Carol Hartzog and most recently member, James Boggs has picked up the torch. Making the presentation was Boggs and Club President, Jessica Lyle. 
 

Approximately, 26 club members volunteer on a weekly and bi-weekly basis to read in the classrooms during the school year.  Club member, Beth Case says “I get great joy in the big greeting that I get from the students.  They are so happy to have a guest in their classroom, and it brings back fond memories of reading to my own children.”
