Lincoln Rotary Salute to Business Honoree
Clark & Enersen is pleased to announce that we have received the Rotary Clubs of Lincoln 2026 Salute to Business award. We are humbled and honored to add our name to the list of many esteemed businesses previously recognized since the award’s inception in 1993. The four Rotary Clubs of Lincoln annually select a recipient among business in the Lincoln area that have made a significant contribution to the city through employment and community impact, and align with Rotary’s motto of “Service Above Self.”
At the award luncheon, members of our team were joined by more than 350 attendees including Lincoln business leaders, elected officials, and community members to celebrate our firm’s 80 years of contributions to the Lincoln community through partnership in thoughtful design. The program included kind remarks from those in attendance, including Bob Evnen, Nebraska secretary of state; Leirion Gaylor Baird, Lincoln mayor; Gretchen Bren, Rotary district governor; and Mark Feit, Lincoln Rotary Club 14 president.
“Congratulations to Clark & Enersen on receiving this year’s Rotary Salute to Business Award! Thank you for helping design and engineer Lincoln’s evolution over the past eight decades, and to our Rotary clubs for celebrating the businesses that help our community flourish.”
– Mayor Leirion Gaylor Baird
Our firm also debuted a short video featuring Principal Emeritus Lowell Berg, Principal Tim Gergen, and Principal Heather Keele. The video showcased an overview of our firm, snapshots of our varied design projects in Lincoln and across the country, and a behind-the-scenes look at our office culture. At the conclusion of the program, Senior Principal Shawn Diederich reflected and spoke on the ongoing legacy of our work while expressing our gratitude as he accepted the award on behalf of the Firm. We are honored to receive this award recognizing the incredible impact our design services have made across the Lincoln community.
Our commitment to “service above self” is woven into every previous, current, and future project as our legacy continues. Thank you to the Rotary Clubs of Lincoln for the opportunity to reflect, celebrate, and share our community impact through design with this special award.
