www.OurOptimist5050.ca Congratulations to Charles MacDonald of Grand Bend, he's our second Early Bird Draw winner of $200 cash! We've got one last early bird draw coming up next month. Meanwhile, the pot continues to grow and we're steaming towards $5K. Grab your tickets by clicking on the link at the top of this post, or copy and paste it into your browser. As always, we are incredibly grateful for your support! We'd like to thank all our volunteers who painted so many faces today at the Forest BIA Kids Day. Thanks to Deb, Deborah, Betty, Madison. Mary Margaret, Sandy and Dr. Fran.
See you next year! Have you seen the write up about our mural project in the August issue of Grand Bend & Lambton Shores Living magazine? The community has truly embraced this art installation with enthusiasm and, as a result, we are steaming quickly to completion of the first phase. That's right - almost 800 tiles of the mosaic have been painted by community members! We have several clubs and organizations booked for sessions in August. An open public session this week was very well attended. There will likely be only one more open session happening and - as always - we will post about it here on our Facebook page and on our website Mural Project
We are so pleased to present our latest fundraising effort. This is a calendar that begins in September 2025 and goes to December 2026. Each month has a beautiful picture of scenery in Port Franks. Included in every month is a list of events and happenings from our Optimist club, Lambton Shores Nature Trails, Port Franks Seniors and the Port Franks Garden Club.
Please look it over and let us know if you would like to pre-order one or more calendars. We will also have them available for sale at our Cornfest on August 23rd. You can email us at [email protected] Click on images below to expand and view: We'd like to thank our many volunteers, Optimists and Friends of Optimists who came out to the Grand Bend Motorplex on Saturday. We provided stand security... and earplugs
It was loud, dusty and full of happy faces enjoying themselves. Many thanks to all of the kind people who purchased 50 50 tickets, supporting our club and community. Our pot is now on the way to $4K with our second early bird cash prize coming up in a couple of weeks. You can buy tickets online at www.OurOptimist5050.ca |
