Our Presidents Message
"It is my pleasure to extend a warm welcome to you as you view this website; The Optimist Club of North Dorchester.
We hope enjoy reading about our club, it's Mission, the Creed we as members live by and the programs and services we provide to this community through our many fundraising events.
The work we do is faced with challenges and consuming interests, but blended with hard work and fun in social settings. We are all volunteers and each have our own expertise that we bring to the organization. We work together, respecting each individual's personal views and in turn, doing the best for the youth of our community by our work and example.
With today's constant changing economy and how non-profit enterprises are viewed, I hope you will welcome the adventure with enthusiasm and anticipation of a new journey should you decide to join us as a member."

The Board of Directors is the governing body of The Optimist Club of North Dorchester and has both collective and individual responsibilities. The Board of Directors are all volunteers and responsible for collective decisions and actions. Individual board members are expected to act in good faith, lawful and in the best interests of the club.
In addition, we have the unique situation that we manage a property that provides rental facilities to the community and a place that we can be proud of the “Optimist Youth Centre” 1653 Richmond Street, Dorchester, ON. This brings with it additional responsibilities and challenges as we deal with “brick and mortar” up-keep.
There are a number of factors, which contribute to the success of any organization. As volunteers we provide the club with the experience and knowledge required to build our community youth programs, services and guide our growth.
Board Members demonstrate ethical and profession conduct to maintain the confidence of the membership and the public. Our commitment includes proper use of the authority and appropriate action in group and individual behavior.
