"By providing hope and positive
visions… Optimist members
bring out the best in kids”
The Fairfield Optimist Club is a local branch of
Optimist International. We are heavily
involved in promoting youth and other philanthropic events in the Fairfield
and Butler County, Ohio community. Our
club is well known for our involvement with youth soccer on the grounds
around the Optimist clubhouse. We are proud to say there are two soccer
organizations associated with the Fairfield Optimist Club. In season, various
teams including local High Schools utilize our complex of “pitches” almost
daily. Our organization also hosts the
Mid-American Soccer Classic held every year in April, a major fundraiser for
our endeavors. Among
the other events hosted by the club is the annual Ron Chasteen
Field and Fishing Day. Club members host 500 special needs students,
educators and staff from the Fairfield City Schools all day at the club. To enhance their enjoyment of the day, the
club members built a handicapped accessible fishing dock in 2008. Club members also provide 100 rods and
reels for their use. The
Optimist Club hosts three events every year in conjunction with Butler County Board of Developmental Disabilities:
Bingo Night in March, a Fishing Derby and Picnic in August and a Halloween
Party in October. We also help to
raise funds in support of the Joe
Nuxhall Miracle League, dedicated to special
needs kids & baseball. We work in
cooperation with our Paragon Optimistst Club for many community based fundraising
events. The
club is dedicated to youth enrichment activities throughout the year. Included is our Fairfield Optimist Memorial
Scholarship, awarded each year to a deserving Fairfield resident, high school
senior. The 2022 Fairfield Optimist Community Memorial
