What do a cupcake and Optimist International President Danny Rodgers have in common? They are both in this video to wish Optimist International a Happy Birthday.
One hundred years ago today, the idea of Optimist Clubs began in Buffalo, New York. That is certainly a cause worth celebrating. Read the story of our organization's optimistic beginning in The Optimist, "2011: The 100th Anniversary of the first Optimist Club" by Dennis Osterwisch, Associate Executive Director, Optimist International.
Go ahead! Find your own cupcake and celebrate!
We love stories about your Optimist Club. Please tell us one and we'll add it to the website.
