Brighton Optimist Club

Welcome

Optimist Clubs are chartered to serve the youth of their communities. Sometimes that can be a pretty large area. Most Clubs participate in Optimist International's signature programs like the Oratorical Contest, which provides young people the opportunity to develop their public speaking skills and a chance to win college scholarships; the new Internet Safety Program, designed to inform both young people and their parents of potential online dangers and offering safe practice tips while online; and the Childhood Cancer Campaign, created in 2001 to be "the leading force to rid the world of childhood cancer"; Clubs also conduct their own local service programs.

Please contact the Brighton Optimist Club at info@BrightonOptimist.org.

Meetings

The Brighton Optimist Club meets every Thursday morning at 7:30am at the Bauery Restaurant, 4141 Bauer Rd, Brighton 48116. We have speakers of general interest the first three weeks, and a Club Business Meeting on the last Thursday of each month.  Buffet breakfast is $7. First time visitors eat for free.
