Every year, Optimist Clubs around the world participate in Optimist International sponsored scholarship programs for writing and speaking. All begin at the club level and have different criteria to progress through zones, regions, and district judging. The topics for 2008 and a PNW District Contact email address for each contest are as follows:
Essay Contest - "Today's Choices Shape My Future" Email
Oratorical Contest - "Why Me? Why Not?" Email
Communications Contest for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing (CCDH) - "Why Me? Why Not?" Email
