Purpose of the Optimist Club

To develop Optimism as a philosophy of life. To promote an active interest in good government and civic affairs. To inspire respect for the law. To promote patriotism and work for international accord and friendship among all people. To aid and encourage the development of youth in the belief that the giving of one's self in service to others will advance the well being of humankind, his community, and the world.

We had a very informative meeting today with Mr. Ken Willette of the Nassau County Council on Aging as our guest speaker. Mr. Willette provided information on the services the Council provides to our elderly such as transportation, food delivery, in-home care, etc. With a constant need for funding, especially for food related items, the Club voted to donate $250 to the Council to help in that area. President Ron Noble attended the District Conference held in Jacksonville over the weekend and was presented with a "Governors Cup" for the Club's efforts in increasing membership and community service. Ron gave notice that the Yulee Optimist will host the zone meeting on Wednesday, July 28th at Murray's Grille, 6pm. Please mark that on your schedule and let's have a great turn-out for the Zone. Next week's speaker will be Ms. Deborah Bowen of Earthly Treasures. Plan to join us and learn about GOLD!
