About Us

The Fairbury Optimist Club was founded in 1954. For over 60 years the club has been “Bringing Out the Best in Kids” in Fairbury and Jefferson County.

We meet the 2nd & 4th Tuesdays of the month at 6:30 p.m. at the Bonham Theatre in downtown Fairbury. The club does not meet in July.

The Optimist Creed

Promise Yourself…
• To be so strong that nothing can distrub your peace of mind.
• To talk health, happiness and prosperity to everyone you meet.
• To make all your friends feel that there is something in them.
• To look at the sunny side of everything and make your optimism come true.
• To think only of the best, to work only for the best and expect only the best.
• To be just as enthusiastic about the success of others as you are about your own.
• To forget the mistakes of the past and push on to the greater achievements of the future.
• To wear a cheerful countenance at all times and give every living creature you meet a smile.
• To give so much time to the improvement of yourself that you have no time to criticze others.
• To be too large for worry, too noble for anger, too strong for fear, and too happy to permit the presence of trouble.
