To Caribbean Optimism 2012-2013

What a difference a year makes...
As we close out the 2012-2013 year
The 7804 Optimist says:
Congratulations to all members of Optimist International Caribbean District for a tremendously awesome year. The lives of our children and young people across the Caribbean are better because of you... your spirit of service and commitment as volunteers cannot be discounted.

Big up and maximum respect 
to District Governor, Lynden Buchanan...
for making such a difference one child at a time!
And what a way to end the year?
The Arthur Guinness Award for the Bridging Gap project!!
Endurance to the very end...

Saluting District Secretary-Treasurer, Latoya Wade... 

for an amazing year! Continue to do what you do for Optimism.

To all Lieutenant Governors... for leading with such quiet resolve and aplomb.

And lest we forget, District Chairpersons and special committee leaders and members, we acknowledge you for crossing the many rivers and helping to show that overcoming is possible.

Club presidents...without you there is no Optimist movement. Gratitude to you all... A blazing trail you have all made!

And oh, what a special force the Caribbean District shared with the Southeast Region...
Her royal highness of generosity and inspiration,
International Vice President, Sonia Anderson...
what more can we say but
ONE LOVE!

Finally, to For The Future Optimist International President, Jean Claude St. Onge for sharing his passion for children with the Caribbean, we say Thank You.

To the incoming 2013-2014 team of District Governor, Nutilia Simon, we say, nothing but the best. We are confident of the promise because we know...we've got it!
