About Us
The club was formed on April 24th, 1973. It was chartered with 27 original members, some of whom are still members of the club today. The North Liberty Optimists currently have over 50 members. They have always believed in helping the youth of North Liberty by giving them opportunities and chances that they may not have otherwise had.
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.
