Mission: By providing hope and positive vision, Optimists bring out the best in kids!
Respect for Law
While this is not technically a youth service program, it is certainly a community action program. Southern Jefferson County law enforcement offices are contacted and asked to nominate a law enforcement professional to be recognized for outstanding service. The nominees attend a special luncheon with our club and receive recognition from their superior officer.
Our Optimist Purposes:
- to inspire respect for law
- to develop Optimism as a philosophy of life
- to promote an active interest in government and civic affairs
- to promote patriotism and friendship among all people
- to aid and encourage the development of youth
Respect for Law 2020
This Year's Recognition Looked a Little Different
We went to the various departments and presented the awards to the officers individually! We appreciate the Jefferson County Leader Newspaper for publishing this article. These are some of our heroes!
