The Optimist Club of Stoughton has been proudly supporting our Stoughton, Wisconsin youth for three decades now! Although our website is new, our organization has a long and impressive record of accomplishments. In the weeks and months ahead we will bring you a history of what The Stoughton Optimist Club has provided for this community, as well as provide updated information of interest to our members, our community, and the youth for which we are so dedicated.
We invite you now to take a moment and explore these pages so that you may learn more about how our organization supports the youth right here in Stoughton. The accomplishments of our organization over the years are testimony to the efforts of many individuals who have shared their time, money, and resources to bring our kids those things that make a difference in their lives.
We are currently seeking new members to continue with our record of success and community support. Our meetings are typically held twice a month on the first and third Mondays at 6:30 pm at ISADEX Corporation, 100 Business Park Circle, Suite 109 in Stoughton.
