Thanks to all of The Ausable Port Franks Optimist members who helped make these pins and the staff at Lizzy’s, Grog’s and McPherson’s who helped distribute them. Our great community supported this idea and together we raised $599 for Red Cross efforts in Ukraine which, combined with our Optimist Club donation and the profit from our Ukrainian Easter Egg workshop, brings our total to $1000. Great job everyone!  How exciting to have this favourite event for many return this year!

We are so excited and happy to revive this much anticipated yearly event! Fun for the whole family!  Back by popular demand - and requiring two sessions to accommodate those interested - Dawn was back with another painting! Click on the image below to see more.  A lovely afternoon on March Break with so many budding young artists. What great St. Patrick’s Day fun at the Optimist paint event for kids! Thanks Dawn Greco for leading these young artists - the wonderful results speak for themselves. These kids are going to have good luck as they’ve perfectly ‘captured’ their leprechauns! Click on the image below to see all of the fun:  We are doing some renovations of our hall with the help of a grant and the municipality. Kudos to these intrepid volunteers who have done a lot of the work themselves! We had to say good-bye to our 'handprint wall' but made sure to record it for posterity. New storage, paint, and (soon to come) flooring and lighting are really updating this space and we're excited to once again put it to good use in our community! We're also doing a lot of work cleaning and reorganizing some of our existing storage areas which will now be so much easier to access. We're not finished yet but you can see the great progress if you click on the images below! How very kind of Santa to take time out at this very busy time of year to visit!
