IT'S
FUN TO BE AN OPTIMIST!
One
of the best reasons for being an Optimist in the SWIS DISTRICT
is participating in numerous events throughout the year. Some
of these projects and activities are for personal enjoyment
(Youth Activities),
while
others are
designed to provide needed assistance to others in their community,
our state, or even our nation (Community Service). To
help recognize the activities of all clubs and Optimists in the
SWIS District, we encourage all clubs to utilize the simplified
forms made available on this site, including:
Complete
and submit these forms regularly to help
document the activities
of your club's activities, and
the accomplishments
of your members. Contact and address information is
shown below. Your progress will be posted on this site
to share and reward
your achievements
with
other clubs
in our
District. |
