Pitch-In Brooklin Is Back The Optimist Club of Brooklin recently held its annual Essay Contest, the subject this year being,"Who is an everyday hero that brings out the Optimism in you?" The winner was Charlotte Selda, a student at All Saints Catholic High School. She wrote passionately about her grandfather who had turned his life around after suffering serious health issues and is now seen as an inspiration to all those around him. Rick Zheng and Julia Ochwat, also students at All Saints, were the runners up. Judging was based on the guidelines and scoring methodology laid down by Optimist International. Charlotte read her essay at recent Optimist meeting and is pictured with her mother and Club members being presented with her winning cheque of $400 by Club President Jim McGrorey. She will progress to the District stage of the competition with the opportunity to win a college sponsorship of $2500. The Optimist Club, whose motto is 'Friend of Youth,' meets on the second and fourth Wednesday of each month. New members are always welcome!
