 From the President… Greetings Optimist Friends, We are entering a new year and season for our club. On November 11th we had a fantastic Veteran’s Day program, thanks to Robyn, Sid, Larry B and JJ. I have received emails and comments that it was the best Optimist meeting they have ever attended. Add my name […]

From the President… I want to thank all of you for your support this past year.  I was a tremendous experience serving as your President and I couldn’t have done it without you. I have people ask me what the Optimist Club is all about and I tell them “we raise lots of money, we […]
