Optimists plan to "Rake up Boise"


Dear Optimists,

As we have done for many years now, the Boise Noon Optimist Club, has registered to volunteer for Rake Up Boise on Saturday, November 10. If you would be able to help our group for about 3 - 4 hours that day would you please respond so I know how many homes we will be able to handle.

This has always been a very rewarding day, helping those who need it and also a lot of fun. I know we will be raking up our very special home on Amber street again with hot coffee, cocoa, chocolate chip and famous Snicker Doodle cookies to keep us going.

My goal is 40 + people on our team. This is a great time for full families to get together to serve, so spouses, kids, friends or associates who might be considering joining our club or just want to help.

I'll be sending you an on-line registration form from Rake Up Boise for you all to complete once I know who will be on our team.

Thanks for your willingness to help others.

Scott said he liked the nighttime meeting at the Black Bear and wants to keep going there once a month. We are maybe going to have on speaker a month at the Twin Dragon and Scott thought it would be good to have our members come up and speak for a few minutes. Wemay have a speaker at one of our nighttime meetings.

We need help at the fields on Saturday for equipment turn-ins.
