It's a busy time of the year

Angie Bridge, President, Jerome Optimist Club

It's a busy time around the Pacific Northwest District. New members are being added. New clubs are being started. New officers are planning installation banquets.  Plus school is back in session so our Optimist Clubs are busy making plans and carrying out their fall programs.

Yesterday I had the great pleasure of speaking to the Middleton Chamber of Commerce about the new Middleton Area Optimist Club and how service clubs and chambers of commerce can work together to enhance the quality of life in a community. Then I sped off to Jerome to visit with the Jerome Optimist Club where they are diligently working to complete the steps for Distinguished recognition this year. I know you can do it!

Over in Olympia, Washington, the Mason County Optimist Club held their first informational meeting for a new Optimist Club. You go, girls! We want to see Mason County and club president Ellen Julian earn that Distinguished recognition as well.
