NBMS Junior Optimist Club
The
NBMS Jr. Optimist Club is closely linked with the Optimist Club of
Weaverville. These clubs provide service to those in need in our
community. To date we have approximately 40 kids on the roster. We meet
weekly and are currently involved in a White Christmas canned food drive
that benefits those in our local community.
In
December, the NBMS chapter will work with the Optimists of Weaverville
selling Christmas trees in the parking lot of Ace Hardware on Weaver
Blvd. We will also will be part of the Optimist Club float in the
Weaverville Holiday Parade.
The NBMS Jr. Optimists
will also work the concessions at some of the girl's and boy's
basketball games this winter. In the spring we will sponsor the End of
Year Dance at the middle school. Proceeds from these fund raisers go to
scholarships for the Washington DC trip as well as other programs as
need indicates.
The Optimist Club of Weaverville
sponsors not only the NBMS chapter but also the chapter at North Windy
Ridge. For more information about the Optimist Organization, please
