South Tahoe Optimist

                                                                  Friends of youth 
 

The Optimist Club of South Lake Tahoe is very busy moving into Spring 2013.  Our Easter Egg Hunt @ the Community college was a huge success with record turnout.  We will be hosting our annual fishing derby @ Sawmill pond on June 8th. We will also be having the Duck Races, pancake breakfast, car show, rib cookoff & more @ Tahoe Paradise Park on June 22nd.  We look forward to seeing the entire community this spring, in support of our local youth!
The South Tahoe Optimist club was founded in 1965.  For over 45 year our organization has worked hard to support local youth organizations in the South Tahoe area.  Our efforts and fund raising events are largely made possible by both local businesses and individual contributions.  Some of our events, such as the Optimist tree lot & pancake breakfasts have become a staple in the community.  We are very excited about some of our newer events, as well as new members of our organization with the vision and energy to see them through.  As the name says, we are very "Optimist"ic at what the future holds for our local youth!
