How to promote good citizenship


The Breakfast Optimist Club of Loveland, Colorado has been promoting good citizenship at the Winona Elementary School for two decades.  Optimist Club members Ed Stone and Del Wittler usually visit with Good Citizen Awards to students, but when they learned the school needed new flags they knew it was part of their mission. 

In addition to purchasing flags, they have developed a training session to teach respect and proper care of the flag.  What a great way to spread the purposes of an Optimist Club.
