Experience Optimism: Recite the Optimist Creed; wake up on the bright side
http://newoptimistclub.blogspot.com/2015/07/recite-optimist-creed-wake-up-on-bright.html
July 19, 2015. Recite the Optimist Creed; wake up on the bright side. It's always interesting to see if my weekly thought about joining an Optimist Club has legs. In other words, which one of my pithy little statements will be shared and shared again on Facebook. Most know that the Optimist Creed. One of my favorite things about being an Optimist Club member is reciting the Optimist Creed. Find an Optimist Club. Near you or contact me. I would be happy to help you. Start a new Optimist Club.

March 21, 2015. Hope blossoms once a year giving rebirth to nature and promising growth and happiness to all who step outside to view its colorful canvas.

Experience Optimism: June 2015
http://newoptimistclub.blogspot.com/2015_06_01_archive.html
June 28, 2015. In the search for optimistic sayings, I recently read that an optimist is a person who continually looks for a new definition of optimist. In honor of that assertion, I decided to roll out an oldie, but a goodie with the time-honored statement, "An optimist sees the donut; a pessimist sees the hole.". It's true, you know. An optimist sees the benefit of all situations first and foremost. When you begin a project with the "I can" attitude, it's amazing how far and fast you'll go. If you wou...

Experience Optimism: August 2015
http://newoptimistclub.blogspot.com/2015_08_01_archive.html
August 20, 2015. Children need adults who care about what they do. It's pretty simple. Children should not be left alone to run through a deserted subway station. Nor should they be left alone to run through a crowded one either. However, every day, children are left alone while parents work and other less than positive reasons. Join an Optimist Club today. Click here to find an Optimist Club. In your community or contact me. And I will help you get one started. Posted by Linda Vaught. August 15, 2015.

Experience Optimism: BTS: Shop with a Cop
http://newoptimistclub.blogspot.com/2015/08/bts-shop-with-cop.html
August 8, 2015. BTS: Shop with a Cop. With so many communities struggling to find ways to connect police officers to those they serve and protect in a positive manner, here is a thought. Many Optimist Clubs, among other service clubs and groups, host Shop with a Cop. Events at Christmas. Why not hold a similar event right now to help children get ready to go back to school? Why would an Optimist Club be involved in such a program? Because it meets two of the purposes of Optimist International:. Optimist ...

Experience Optimism: Build a Little Free Library
http://newoptimistclub.blogspot.com/2015/07/build-little-free-library.html
July 17, 2015. Build a Little Free Library. My Experience Optimism post today comes from a sister service club - Kiwanis - and while this charming little house was built by the Kiwanis Club of Fircrest, Washington, any service club can do it. A small lending library. Sitting on the corner of Fircrest Park, this cute little house encourages readers to take a book and leave a book as often as they wish. And tips for marketing your library. Posted by Linda Vaught. Do the right thing. Join an optimist club.

http://newoptimistclub.blogspot.com/2015/08/to-100-members-and-beyond.html
August 6, 2015. To 100 members and beyond! Another Optimist Club that is on a big wave of additions is the Optimist Club of Lebanon, Oregon. On its Facebook page today, it shared, "Getting so crowded with Optimists that some had to be cool kids and sit in the back.". Asked how they do it, the humble-brag is that the Optimist Club is the happ'n'st club in town. They are also optimistic at their meetings. No drama allowed. This club gets together to make a positive change it its community. I had the wonder...

Experience Optimism: Pancakes advance our communities
http://newoptimistclub.blogspot.com/2014/04/pancakes-advance-our-communities.html
April 23, 2014. Pancakes advance our communities. As I grew up, the Lions Club Pancake Breakfast and Jaycees Fish Fry were social gatherings that families didn't miss. In addition to helping out the clubs in their fundraising efforts, attendees would visit with friends and families and in social parlance, they would just hang out and be seen. Times have changed. Service clubs hold fewer food-related fundraisers. My work with the Middleton Area Optimist Club. At the recent Biz Expo sponsored by the chambe...
