The PNW District woke up this morning in 28th place of all Optimist International Districts. We can do better than that!
It takes your help to make our District and your Optimist Club as strong as it can be. The minimum effort is called Honor Club and it's not too late to make it. Here are the Honor Club requirements for 2015-2016:

For those Optimist Clubs that want to do a little bit more, the Distinguished Club recognition includes:
- Meet Honor Club requirements
- Charter a new Optimist Club OR
