Welcome

The Noontime Optimist Club of Freehold, New Jersey enters its 25^th year of service to the children of our communities. By providing hope and positive vision, Optimists “Bring out the Best in Kids”.

We come from all walks of life, supporting our kids and our community. We sponsor scholarships for deserving children, donations to Camp Quality (a summer camp for kids with cancer) and other worthwhile projects in the community to benefit our kids.

There is no special qualification to become an Optimist, just a desire to make a difference, build new relationships and have the opportunity to develop and demonstrate leadership skills.

We are always looking to expand our membership. We meet at Noon on Wednesdays in a variety of local venues. We always have lots of activities… email us at noontimeoptimists@gmail.com for details.

We have asked some of our members

what compelled them to become

an Optimist Club Member, and the

responses were as varied as the

backgrounds they came from.

“As my children got older it was a

way for me to keep connected and

stay active in the community where I

live.”-- Patti Schrager

“I had a great childhood growing up

in Freehold and I wanted to ensure

that the next generation has the

same opportunities I had.”— Helene Elo

“After retiring as a school teacher I

wanted to stay involved with helping

our youth.”—Sheila Saul
