The Essay Contest is sponsored by Optimist International to

opinions regarding the world in which they live. The approach
can encompass a young person’s personal experience, the
experience of their country or a more historical perspective.
In additional to developing skills for written expression,
participants also have the opportunity to win a college
scholarship of up to $6,000!
The guidelines require that contestants be under age 19 as of
December 31 of the 2009-2010 school year. Club winners advance
to the District contest to compete for a $2,500 college
scholarship. Each District winner is automatically entered
into the International Essay Contest where a panel of judges
select the top three essays. Scholarships are awarded as
follows: first place - $6,000; second place - $3,750; and
third place - $2,250. The District- and
