Piper Optimist Club

Directions Website

Piper Optimist Club Members of the Optimist Club of Piper are men of all ages and backgrounds. We are a hands-on club that rolls up its sleeves instead of sitting on the sidelines.

Established in 1968, Piper Optimist Club is a 501(c)(3) organization that supports youth in the Piper community through scholarships, athletic programs, and student opportunities. We are affiliated with Optimist International, an international service organization of similar goals. We believe that, through young people, we can influence the future by encouraging good academics, citizenship, a love of sports and sportsmanship, and an optimistic view of life. As a club member, you will have many opportunities to make a real difference in young peopleโ€™s lives. You might be a coach, a scorekeeper, an announcer, or, you might judge an essay contest. We finance our programs through donations and other โ€œfunโ€ fundraising events.
