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.

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.
Update
We are actively planning many events, including the next Camel Races (Feb. 2011). We are always looking for new members to help with youth activities and fundraising efforts. Come check us out!
