The Glen Lake Optimist tree lot will be opening on Nov 19, 2018. Our lot is located at the GAL softball field, field 3, just off Excelsior
Blvd on Glenview Drive in Glen Lake. The selling of Christmas trees is our main fund raiser every year. We thank those you have supported us in the past and look forward to seeing past and new supporters this year.
Also, if any of you would like to learn more about our club and meet some of our members, we are always looking for volunteers at the lot. You can contact us via e-mail and contact a member on our contact page. Again thanks for your continuing support.

JUVENILE DIVERSION PROGRAM
Among the programs we support is the Juvenile Diversion Program run by the Northern Star Council of the Boy Scouts of America. The program was established in 1996 to encourage and guide young people between 10 and 18 who are first or second-time offenders of a low-level offense to become aware of their behavior and its impact on society and their future. The program diverts youth from the court system and results show that 87% of participants graduate and maintain a clean record. Also 85% of participants improve relationships with their parents. For more information you can go to our links page on click on Northern Star Council web site.

TREE LOT
The Glen Lake Optimist Tree lot is closed for the 2017 season. We would like to thank those who purchased their Christmas tree at our lot. The selling of trees is our major fundraiser for the year. We are able to support the many programs which we help in our community only with the support of those who buy their tree from our lot. We wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. We look forward to seeing you again in 2018. Thank you.
We would also like to thanks those many individuals whom helped us by volunteering at our tree lot. Your help is and was greatly appreciated. A big thank you to those people also.
