The Chilliwack Optimist Club has been busy this week celebrating the holidays and other end of year activities.
On Friday, December 5, 2014, the club hosted its second Annual Circle of Friends Dinner. According to club champion and event chairperson Glenda Standeven, it was a sold-out event that secured friendships and commitment to service in the community all in an entertaining setting. They collected canned goods, children's gifts and other donations to be used for families in the community.
The next morning, the Optimist Club met for its monthly meeting and recognized many for their service to the club and community including Lily Ross and LucyAnne Carruthers, among others.
Continuing in its festive mode, Secretary Coralee Lord Holmes and President Peter Holmes were invited to help make pizzas for the residents of Heritage Village. Donning reindeer antlers and coin belts, it was a festive atmosphere for all.
The Chilliwack Optimist Club invites you to see more pictures and to follow its activities on Facebook.
We love stories about your Optimist Club. Please tell us one and we'll add it to the website.
