We'd love to tell you more about our club. Below are the best reasons to join and the Optimist Creed which is something Optimists strive to live by.
This photo is of the Optimist Creed. Here are the words:Promise Yourself To be SO STRONG that nothing can disturb your peace of mind. To talk health, happiness and prosperity to every person you meet. To make all your friends feel that there is something in them. To look at the sunny side of everything and make your optimism come true. To think only of the best, to work only for the best and to expect only the best. To be just as enthusiastic about the success of others as you are about your own. To forget the mistakes of the past and press on to the GREATER ACHIEVEMENTS of the future. To wear a cheerful countenance AT ALL TIMES and give every living creature you meet a smile. To give so much time to the improvement of yourself that you have NO TIME to criticize others. To be too large for worry, too noble for anger, too strong for fear, and too happy to permit the presence of trouble.
Why Join Our Optimist Club
The opportunity to help We believe that those who give the most are the happiest. There is nothing more encouraging than individuals who reach out to make other people’s lives better. It demonstrates the value of service to others and shows us how important our contributions are in making this world a better place..
Personal growth and development
Membership provides many opportunities for personal development. Being of service to others develops good character in every person. It gives us experiences that teach and  Optimist International also provides members access to an online learning system.
