During the convention, the topics for the Scholarship Contests for the coming year are revealed. They are:
Optimist International Essay Contest - "When All the World's Problems are Solved, is Optimism Still Necessary?"
Optimist International Oratorical Contest and Communications Contest for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing - "Is There a Fine Line Between Optimism and Reality?"
When available, complete contest rules will be posted at http://www.optimist.org/member/scholarships1.cfm.
Please use this notice as a heads-up so that your Optimist Club can make connections with your local schools in August.
All scholarship contests begin at the Optimist Club level. If you are a potential student contestant, teacher, counselor, or parent, please find an Optimist Club near you at this link.
