Meeting of September 22:
President Alan (seated, in center) receiving a Thank You certificate from the members. September 22 was our last meeting of the 2014-2015 Optimist Year. President Alan Schmidlapp thanked the club officers, and all of the members for their efforts during the past year. He then conducted an official installation of the new officers for the 2015-2016 year. The club members thanked Alan and presented him with a photo commemoration of the club's accomplishment during his term. Special thanks to President Alan for his strong leadership and organization in serving as club President for the second year in a row (his fourth term overall). We thank him for his dedicated service to our club.
| The officers that Alan inducted for the 2015-2016 Optimist Year that begins on October 1 were Rick Snider as our new president, and continuing their terms were Rhonda Clemens as treasurer, and Diana Schaefer as secretary. This is Rick's first term as president with Northridge Optimist Club, but he is a longtime member of Vandalia Optimist Club and has served there previously as both president and secretary. Rick's experience and leadership will be of great value to the club, and he is excited to be to working with the officers and members. We can all look forward to a great year, and benefiting from our tradition of strong leadership. Good Luck, President Rick ! |  2015-2016 President Rick |
