Join us for our 4th Annual Trivia Night, co-sponsored with the UW-W Student Optimist Club to be held Friday, February 17, 2016. There is only room for 30 teams so don’t delay.
Information about sponsorship, silent auction donations and more will be made available from this page. See the links to the right under the heading “Helpful Links.”
Greetings, Optimists,
Thank you to those who served as judges for the Academic Decathlon this past Friday.
Our first Club meeting of 2017 will be on Tuesday, January 17 (the first day of classes at the University). Our guest speaker will be Artanya Wesley (our new Dean of Students at UW-W). We hope we can have a good turnout at the meeting to greet and learn about Artanya. We will continue into the new year with a catered meal.
Please watch for a brief survey regarding meetings to be sent out by our intern Brandon in the next week.
Thanks and stay safe on our slick streets and sidewalks.
Of course, we encourage you to “just keep smiling!”
Kim & Angie 🙂
Happy New Year, Optimists!
We hope you have had happy and healthy holidays!
On Tuesday, January 10 at noon in UC 268 will be our next Board meeting. There will be no Club meeting.

Greetings for the New Week, Optimists!
Thank you for your support of our December programs, to date.
Tuesday, we will meet at Noon in UC 259A for Youth of the Month, honoring our high school students. Ryan Callahan from Continuing Education will also be our guest speaker.
There is no scheduled meeting on December 28. The board also agreed there will no longer be a meeting on January 3. Enjoy the two weeks off from meetings and programs!
The board also discussed two items related to our regular Optimist meetings. One, there was discussion about the continuation of catered lunches. We are not always meeting our quota of 15–therefore needing to tap into the Club budget to cover on meals where we are short. Two, there was discussion about potentially changing (or rotating) the day of the week we meet (as well as the time). Our intern Brandon will be creating a survey related to these topics in order for you to provide your feedback. When you see it in your email, please complete it and return it promptly. Thanks, in advance for your investment of time.
Thanks again to our interns–Rachel and Brandon for a great semester!
Remember . . . just keep smilin’!
We wish you a happy and safe holiday season,
Kim & Angie
