Lakota Optimist Club
The Lakota Optimist Club meets every Saturday. The meetings start at about 8:00 am and don't usually last past 9:30. The Optimist Clubs have a Creed that our actions are based on. We are the 'Friend of Youth' and our activities reflect that focus. Membership is open to Men and Women who share our goal of improving the lives of our local youth.
The Optimist Club sponsors and supports several programs in our local area. These programs focus on the youth of Lakota.
