Summit Optimist Club

$
Optimist Clubs are dedicated to "Bringing Out the Best in Kids" and do their part through community service projects. Since each Club is autonomous and run by members in their community, Optimists have the unique flexibility to serve the youth of their area in any way they see fit. Optimist Clubs see a need in their community and react to it.
Optimists strive to live up to their name and maintain an upbeat attitude, which they try to pass along to the children they serve. The words of The Optimist Creed are well known to Optimist volunteers and beyond. The creed gives volunteers a focus for personal improvement as they work to better the world around them. 

Missouri Institute of Natural Science

$
Funds from this fundraiser will benefit the museum and aid in continued research within Riverbluff Cave. In addition, donations will aid in partnering with area schools to offer educational experiences to local students on Missouri’s natural history and its fragile ecosystem.
The primary objectives of the Institute at its inception, were to create a natural history museum, to educate the public on the ways in which learning from past environments can help us to be better stewards of our present climate and natural resources, to preserve and protect Riverbluff Cave and the fossils, minerals, artifacts and modern biological samples in the collection, and to provide a venue for meetings and educational activities involving community groups and local schools. Since that time the Institute has seen many successes, such as the installation of the first live broadcast fiber optic cable system within a cave, the construction of a combined office, geologic library and lab facility in November 2005, and the realization of a goal with the opening of Missouri’s first natural history museum May 5, 2009. 

The Missouri Institute of Natural Science is a volunteer run nonprofit organization funded solely through grants, donations, and the support of a community who shares our goal of educating and enlightening generations of visitors.
