The Mansfield Noon Optimist Club is celebrating 100 years of service to our community in October. The Club was formed in October 1923 and we are still going strong in October 2023. The Club motto is “Friend of Youth”.
As part of our Centennial Celebration we will be providing FREE Carousel rides from 3-6pm at the Carousel Park on October 6th. Free rides for kids and adults. We will also be holding a “garage sale” event at the Carousel from 3-7pm as a fund raiser for the Club. Come on out and participate in our celebration and have some FUN.
Another project that has taken a year plus to fulfill is in conjunction with the Buckeye Imagination Museum (formerly Little Buckeye). We have donated $50,000.00 to build a children playground at their location on Park Avenue West. The playground equipment is located at the back of their property and is accessible from the Third Street entrance. Close to the former Holiday Inn. A dedication ceremony and ribbon cutting is scheduled for October 11th at 1:30pm. Come join us.
