Happy Thanksgiving Week, Optimists!

Thanksgiving week always seems to go too quickly.

  • A reminder, there is NO MEETING this week.
  • Football ticket taking will continue for our group as our UW-Whitewater Warhawks claimed a victory over Macalester College this past Saturday. We will be hosting Wabash College (of Indiana) this Saturday for a 12:00pm kickoff.  Ticket Takers, be sure to dress warmly for the upcoming November 29 game!!
  • On Tuesday, Dec. 2 during our 12:00pm meeting, we will be stuffing goodie bags for Breakfast with Santa.  Santa, Mrs. Claus, Frosty and all of their helpers will be on hand on Saturday, Dec. 6 at Esker Hall for the big event.  Breakfast will be served from 8:00am – 11:00am.  Tickets are $1.00 for children and $5.00 for adults.  Many tickets will be available through the Whitewater Food Pantry.
  • We could still use help with equipment pickup on Friday, December 5, in the kitchen on December 6 and with cleanup on December 6. If you’ve been waiting with signing up to see where help is still needed, now you know so please let me know.
  • Lastly–mittens, gloves, scarves and hats are needed for the children in our community.  We will be arranging for school officials to come to our club meeting on Dec. 16 for our annual mitten tree presentation.  Please bring any contributions of these types no later than the 16th.  A tree will be set up outside of our meeting room for the presentation.  I believe several other trees will be set up throughout the community.
  • Please continue to invite  friends, colleagues, neighbors, etc., to our meetings.  It would be great to add some new faces and willing hands to our club’s membership roster.

Share the Optimism,
