November 11, 2016 - We call it Remembrance Day and Veterans Day, but in Coquitlam, British Columbia, the Optimist Club calls it Free Skate Day. For a number of years, the Coquitlam Optimist Club has held a free ice skating activity for children on this day off from school. This year they also held the Annual Walk for Youth and raised more than $7,000.
Take a look at the photos shared on Facebook of the participants plus all the food they collected for the Tri-City Food Bank.
We love stories about your Optimist Club. Please tell us one and we'll add it to the website.
