Convention craziness

Nearly 100 Optimist Club members participated in training and fellowship at the Pacific Northwest District Optimist Convention over the weekend. We'll let you know all that happened later this week (such as Bill French from the Hillsboro Optimist Club was elected Governor-elect 2010-2011), but for now we wanted to share a slideshow with you courtesy of Alan Zehntbauer, Lt. Governor, Zone 4.

The following pictures are from the BBQ and Old Timers Breakfast. Note some of the crazy attendees including Merriwether Lewis, Marshall Dillon, and other wild west figures. Since the theme was explorers and pioneers, even Albert Einstein showed up to begin nuclear research at the Hanford Nuclear Reservation. It looks like some members rolled out of bed and came that way including rockstar Danny Rodgers and his groupies.  I hope you enjoy the pictures as much as we enjoyed the weekend.
