It has been a week worth celebrating in Plano, with two local milestones putting the city in the spotlight for all the right reasons.

Plano’s finest brought home gold at the 2026 Texas Police & Fire Games, according to Star Local Media. The annual competition brings together law enforcement and firefighting professionals from across the Lone Star State to compete in athletic events, and Plano’s police officers rose to the top of the podium — a testament to the dedication and teamwork that defines the department both on and off the job.

Meanwhile, the arts community has its own reason to cheer. Plano’s Repertory Company Theatre is celebrating a remarkable 40-year milestone, with the organization also looking ahead to continued growth, Plano Magazine reported. Four decades of bringing live theatre to North Texas residents is no small feat, and the company’s longevity speaks to the deep roots it has put down in the community and the loyal audiences who have supported it year after year.

Together, these two stories paint a picture of a city that takes pride in its people — whether they are competing on an athletic field or performing on a stage. Congratulations to the Plano Police Department and to the Repertory Company Theatre on these well-earned achievements.
