Would you like to win up to $22,500?!

For you students who are full of great ideas, here is your opportunity to shine. The Optimist Clubs of Westvale-Waterloo and Twin Cities are hosting their annual Essay and Oratorical Contests again.

Are you brave enough to speak to a small audience for 4 to 5 minutes and tell them “Where Are My Roots of Optimism?” Or can you write a 700 to 800 word essay answering the question, “Can Society Function Without Respect?” If so, please speak to your teacher or guidance counsellor, or search on Facebook for the Westvale-Waterloo Optimist Club to get more information and an application.

Applications must be signed by your parents and returned to us by 5 pm on the 15th of January, 2018. Winners at the club level will receive gift certificates, but winning essays can go on to win $2,500 and speeches are eligible to go on and compete for international scholarships totaling up to $22,500.
