Since 1961, we have been an Optimist Club in Prince Albert, Saskatchewan, Canada, which is part of Optimist International. We belong to the International District, of Alberta, Saskatchewan, Montana and Northern Wyoming (AMS&NW). We are a worldwide volunteer organization, a non profit service club with a mandate to help "Bring the best out in Kids".
We donated $5,000 to Big Noise Youth Choir for their trip to sing at Carnegie Hall in New York City and some cool apparel.
$1,000 sponsorship of the Junior Curling program at the Prince Albert Golf and Curling Club.
A huge thank-you to all of our Santa Anonymous Depot Locations

The Optimist Creed
Promise Yourself
To be so strong that nothing can disturb your peace of mind.
To talk health, happiness and prosperity to every person you meet.
To make all your friends feel that there is something in them.
To look at the sunny side of everything and make your optimism come true.
To think only of the best, to work only for the best, and to expect only the best.
To be just as enthusiastic about the success of others as you are about your own.
To forget the mistakes of the past and press on to the greater achievements of the future.
To wear a cheerful countenance at all times and give every living creature you meet a smile.
To give so much time to the improvement of yourself that you have no time to criticize others.
To be too large for worry, too noble for anger, too strong for fear, and too happy to permit the presence of trouble.
