Optimist

Meeting the needs of young people in Peachtree city, the Optimist Club has been “bringing out the best in kids” since 1974. The Peachtree City Optimist club is a group of men and women with a common belief that we can make a difference in a child’s life, thus our community and the world. Our positive approach, our upbeat outlook and our commitment to creating a more optimist future for kids is what differentiates our Optimist club from any other service opportunity.
