Gifts and Volunteer Time provided to the Rodeo of Smiles on May 30th by the Black Gold Optimist Club

On the morning of Friday May 30, 2014 seven Leduc Optimist members (Margaretha, Trevor, Donna, Bob, Denise, Connie, Ray) assisted at the Rodeo of Smiles in the Leduc Rec Centre. It featured a number of simulated rodeo events enabling approximately 175 special needs kids to participate and have fun in a Rodeo atmosphere.
Additionally, there were 175 gift bags for the participants put together by Optimists Barb and Ian.

Held in conjunction with the Leduc Black Gold Pro Rodeo which ran July 29 - June 1, the Rodeo of Smiles is a terrific annual event which our Club supports and applauds.
