Bringing out the best is a popular catchphrase that reminds every Optimist Club member of the fifth line of the Optimist Creed where we promise to think only of the best, work only for the best, and expect only the best. Bringing out the best in ourselves, our communities, and the youth we serve has been part of our way of life since the organization was formally organized in 1919. Bringing out the best is what Optimist Club members do every day because when we work to bring out the best in others and ourselves, we foster hope and share a positive vision.
Please enjoy this look at 100 years of optimism as Optimist Clubs around the world launch the 100th Anniversary Celebration.
We love stories about your Optimist Club. Please tell us one and we'll add it to the website.
