Learn how the Sun Prairie Optimist Club inspires youth through recognition, contests, scholarships, and leadership opportunities.
Through recognition, mentorship, and scholarships, we help youth grow in confidence and discover their potential.
Students of the Month
Each month, we recognize outstanding middle and high school students for their academic achievements, leadership, and service to others.
Honorees and their families are invited to an Optimist Club luncheon where we celebrate their accomplishments and share their stories of optimism in action.
Scholarship Contests
These contests challenge students to express their thoughts on optimism, leadership, and positive change. Participants build communication and critical-thinking skills — and have a chance to earn scholarships and recognition at regional and national levels.
Graduating High School Senior Scholarships
Each year, we award seven scholarships to graduating seniors from all three Sun Prairie high schools. Recipients are chosen for their service, leadership, and commitment to making a difference.
Tri-Star Basketball
Our Tri-Star Basketball competition encourages kids to stay active and have fun through skill-based challenges. Participants test their dribbling, passing, and shooting while learning the values of sportsmanship and confidence. Every young person deserves encouragement and opportunity.
