Celebrate Community 2021

Celebrate Community 2021

To our Optimist Members: Thanks for all you do to make a meaningful difference in your local community. We share your values in working together to help make our corner of the world a better place, and we all agree that the need for Optimism has never been greater.

With that in mind, leaders of the four major service Club organizations – Kiwanis International, Lions Clubs International, Optimist International, and Rotary International – have been meeting regularly over the past 18 months to share ideas and to identify opportunities to collaborate more, which resulted in the first annual “Celebrate Community” event. Celebrate Community, from October 10-16th, 2021, is the first of what we hope will be many collaborative community events.

With the focus on this year’s 2021 Celebrate Community being a “soft-launch”, know that any effort, no matter how big or how small, is a success. Be sure to let us, the media and news, and your community know about your efforts - whether on your own or with another organization.

Thank you again for all that you do, and we hope you share our enthusiasm for a chance to shine a spotlight on our service and expand our positive impact by teaming up to “Celebrate Community!” We look forward to building on this in the years to come!
