Build a New JOOI Club
Do the Kids in Your Community Need More Optimism?
Ask yourself these three important questions:
- Does our community have a youth problem, a lack of facilities for youth, a lack of organized youth activities, or a lack of talented leadership?
- Do you want to give the kids the opportunity to do something for their community?
- Are there other interested parents and youth who want to get involved?
If you answered Y E S, then forming an "Junior Optimist" or "Octagon" Club in your community may provide the means to improving the situation ... to making your community more active for youth and safer for everyone.
