PROMISE YOURSELF—
To be so strong that nothing can disturb your peace of mind.
To talk health, happiness and prosperity to every person you meet.
To make all your friends feel that there is something in them.
To look at the sunny side of everything and make your optimism come true.
To think only of the best, to work only for the best and to expect only the best.
To be just as enthusiastic about the success of others as you are about your own.
To forget the mistakes of the past and press on to the greater achievements of the future. 
To wear a cheerful countenance at all times and give every living creature you meet a smile. 
To give so much time to the improvement of yourself that you have no time to criticize others. 
To be too large for worry, too noble for anger, too strong for fear and too happy to permit the presence of trouble

Baseball and Soccer Fields:

The Ashland Optimist Board appreciates the need for additional field space, and is working hard towards improving existing fields and obtaining additional space.  Sappington Field is in great shape thanks to the hard work of Red Matheny, and Brian Kirmse is heading up the effort to improve the City Park field.  A new t-ball field is planned with the help of Red Matheny and volunteers.  Irrigation, seeding and purchasing projects are being worked through the Optimist Foundation, a 501(c)3 tax-deductible entity managed by Mike Dalton through the Optimists.  We thank the public for their support and patience as we work towards meeting the needs of our growing youth sports programs.  Thank You!
The Ashland Optimist Club holds regular meetings every Saturday morning at 7:30 am.
