The next regular meeting of the Black Gold Optimist Club of Leduc (after our summer break of July and August) will be on Thursday September 10th starting at 7:30pm in the back section of Smitty's Restaurant Leduc located at #5004 - 50 Avenue.
Those wanting to personally order food / dinner should arrive earlier to allow time to eat leisurely before the meeting commences.
We encourage all members to attend and give your important voices to discussions, decisions and voting.
Guests and potential new members are always WELCOME to attend and learn more about our fundraising, Programs & Activities for the benefit of Youth and Community.

Additional Letters of Appreciation

Further to the previous website posting, additional Letters of Appreciation were, or are to be, delivered to the following Leduc area businesses expressing sincere THANKS for their assistance or sponsorship related to some of our Programs & Activities:

Canadian Tire Leduc
Leduc RMG Agencies / The Co-operators
Rona Leduc
Leduc Radio
Co Op Liquor Leduc

Such support demonstrates their generous Community spirit.

Letters of Appreciation are Presented to Local Establishments

Recently, framed Letters of Appreciation were presented to two Leduc establishments for their help to our Club.
* The Royal Canadian Legion Leduc Branch 108 donated the use of their auditorium for our 2015 annual Spelling Bee in April. They also sold some fundraising raffle tickets on our behalf.
* Playgirl Hair Stylists sold a number of our raffle tickets as well.

We THANK them both for their efforts and support of our Club Programs and Activities.

New Members are Welcomed and Inducted

It was previously posted at the end of May that four new members had decided to join our Club since the start of our year and help us try to make a difference for Youth and Community.

Again, we THANK Amanda, Bev, Robin and Stacey for their decisions and efforts.

Shown below are photos of two of the newest Leduc Optimists. Hopefully, pictures of the other two will be forthcoming - enabling them to be posted as well.
