This is a short post, with an even shorter video, that shows off just one of the many different things that an Optimist Club might do.
The Hillsboro Optimist Club volunteers as support and security for several different events in their hometown. They monitor the Tuesday and Saturday Markets to be certain people aren't walking away with open bottles, among other things, and they provide crowd control at many local parades.
At the most recent parade on St. Patrick's Day, they augmented their support with a Monster Truck display. Decked out in green, the video shows the trucks with the Hillsboro Optimist Club banners proudly leading the way.
Thanks to Jack Thornton for the photos.
