Frequently Asked Questions

Q:  Why would I want to join the Optimist Club?
A:   If you are interested in the future of your City, County, State, and the USA, be a positive influence in the life of a child.  The Optimist Club is a great vehicle for active mentoring of young people.  Come visit us and see how you may fit in.


Q: What sort of time commitment is expected?
A: As you might expect, some members are more active than others.  Some members view their membership as primarily a financial contribution, and we happily use their dues to fund our many community projects.  Others are present for every meeting and every project.  It takes a lot of soldiers to make an army and we would be happy to march with you.

Q: What is the cost of membership?
A:  The initial fee which includes a membership pin and certificate, as well as dues for the first month is $50.  The monthly dues are then $25.  Breakfast is included in the dues!  What a deal!  For those who are unable to attend the morning meetings, the monthly dues are only $15.  We have 1 evening meeting monthly, usually at Golden Coral and it's Dutch Treat.
