Did You Know? 

For years, college students typically passed their spring breaks at home. In the 1930s, though, the Colgate College spring team started traveling to Fort Lauderdale for training. Before long, swimmers from around the country started attending competitions in Florida.

Please clean your tables and invite a guest who would be a great Optimist!

See you next week!
