NEW
CLUBS EQUAL NEW MEMBERS “As all of you know by now OI, and CALSO, are desperately trying to
increase membership. One of
the best ways to do that is by building a New Club in your Zones.
It, automatically, adds 25 members to our districts and to the OI
rolls. It takes a bit more work than just bringing in members, one by
one, but the rewards are great and immediate.
However, no one expects you to do it alone, least of all me.
Some of you may already be aware, and if not consider yourselves so
informed, that I volunteered some months ago to act as the New Club
chair for the CALSO district. Unfortunately,
I don’t seem to be reaching all of you in offering my time and
assistance in starting these new Clubs.
I am now trying to contact those of you who have any interest in
such a project through the auspices of this monthly newsletter. I have materials available, both in writing and on CD’s, to send
you. I will provide
guidance, contacts and ideas I have discovered in my own efforts. AND I
have access to people, both locally and at OI, who can greatly augment
your efforts on building for the future.
I am ready & willing to help! Won’t you let me help you?”

“UNITED
WE STAND IN OPTIMISM” “As CALSO District
Oratorical Chair, I encourage all Officers and Members to
attend the Semifinals Oratorical Contest on May 3, 2003. The
contest will be held in Bldg. 220, at Grossmont College. Contestants
will arrive between 12:00 - 12:30 PM and the contest will begin at 1:00
PM. NORMA’S
NOTES Our
calendar for this third quarter is full with local and O.I. projects. In
April our Zones are holding Oratorical zone contests, getting
ready for the semi-finals and final contests, May 3 and 17 respectively.
Club members should attend these as much as possible to be an audience
for the speakers. Also in April all Optimist clubs must hold their elections
for next years officers. JOOI clubs are expected to elect officers
between April 1st – 15th. All clubs must submit
written reports of the results. Club Secretary/Treasurer officers should
be prepared to pay district and OI dues promptly - the third quarter
dues will be billed shortly after April 1. There
has also been some new appointments and changes I would like to make
everyone aware of: Personal
