So much fun at this afternoon’s meat draw at Grog's Pub and Grill! We are very grateful to the management and staff, and of course the large crowd of happy supporters! Bonus - Canada wins GOLD in curling!

What a fun evening spent creating art and socializing! Thank you to Dawn Greco who facilitated this paint night event, waiving any payment so that 100% of the proceeds will go towards our upcoming Free to Create Kids art show. All of the participants enjoyed themselves so much and went home with a masterpiece!  February's monthly member dinner meeting was well attended and we greatly enjoyed the delicious meal prepared by Betty and Petar! We were having such a lovely time we got a late start on the actual meeting, but still managed to get updated on the many excellent events and initiatives we have coming up in the coming months.  We know we speak for not only our club, but for everyone in our community, when we say THANK YOU to ALL who work in all weather conditions - especially the cold and snow - to keep us, the public, safe. Today, as our way of expressing our appreciation, Betty and Petar delivered a hot and delicious meal to those who drive the plows and do all of the work coordinating, maintaining, and administering the effort to keep our roads clear. We were gratified to receive this lovely message: "I just wanted to take a moment to thank you and the Optimist Club for such an incredible lunch. All the staff attended were over the moon with thanks. Thanking you all once again for the work you do within our Community and Lambton Shores. Bless you all, Dan Wood CRS-I, CIT Transportation Manager" It is we who thank you all! We hope the weather improves, and we are always praying for the safety of those who go out in horrible weather so we can be safe. Today local Port Frankian (Port Frankite?) Mary Margaret Roney held a little class on face painting for three of our members. Face painting is a hugely popular draw at our events, and we are always looking for volunteers to help! |
