President’s Message:
Welcome to the Optimist Club of Aurora website!
Dear Aurora Community,
As we celebrate our 40th anniversary this year, we want to take a moment to reflect on the incredible journey we’ve shared together. For four decades, the Optimist Club of Aurora has been proud to support and give back to this vibrant community in countless ways.
From fulfilling individual requests to sponsoring local youth hockey teams, we’ve remained dedicated to making a positive impact. Our involvement in cherished town events like the annual street sale, the Home Show, and Santa Under the Stars — just to name a few — has allowed us to connect with you, our neighbors, while continuing our mission of supporting youth and families across Aurora.
As we celebrate this special milestone, we look forward to the future with enthusiasm, excited to continue working together to make Aurora an even better place to live and grow.
Thank you for being a part of our story — here’s to many more years of making a difference, side by side!
We look forward to seeing you around town. Check out the Events page to see where will be will next!
Warm regards,
Deb Finniear
