About Us
The Optimist Club is one of many service clubs across the world and has been in existence since 1911. The Optimist Club of Hamilton is now the oldest existing Club in Canada and began in 1924. Members are individuals who are interested in working for the betterment of their community. Although Optimist International has set goals for certain projects, each club run other events to meet the needs of their own community.
The Optimist Club is family oriented. Family/Church/Employment comes first, Optimist comes next. Although there is a need for a strong involvement & commitment, there is no judging of Optimist Members who have families or beliefs which might stop them from volunteering in certain activities.
Optimist are individuals with varying backgrounds but a team working together for one purpose. Families are encouraged to get involved.
