There is a long-standing tradition that officer-elect reports are due in the Optimist International office today,
May 20. It's a good idea to hold your club officer elections early as that way Optimist International and the district can begin communicating with the incoming officers. They can be invited to the International Convention and the 4th Quarter District Meeting/Convention, be signed up for district correspondence, and gain access to other useful resources.
If your Optimist Club has held its elections, please don't wait - report your officer-elects now by going to www.optimistleaders.org and logging in as the president or secretary.
But there is good news folks, for those clubs who still plan to earn the Honor Club award but have not held their elections, Optimist International will not penalize you for turning this report in late. In order to qualify for Honor Club, they merely ask that you turn your report in as soon as possible.
You can do that, right? Hold your elections. Report the outcome. And watch the enthusiasm increase when there are two sets of officers (2013-2014 and 20145-2015) working towards the same goals.
We love stories about your Optimist Club. Please tell us one and we'll add it to the website.
