I don't think that the Optimist Clubs in other towns necessarily sell donuts at their fund-raising events, and if they did they wouldn't necessarily be the same donuts.</p>LakeNeuronThu, 23 Aug 2007 15:03:43 -0000http://lakeneuron.com/2007/08/23/the-hole-thing/#comment-1225089<p>i don't know if it is the same thing, but erin spoke at an optimist club meeting a few months back. until then we had never heard of such a group. certainly not their doughnuts.</p>gavinThu, 23 Aug 2007 14:08:18 -0000http://lakeneuron.com/2007/08/23/the-hole-thing/#comment-1225088<p>I LOVED Optimist doughnuts until high school. I became a member of the Octagon club, which required us to work a few shifts in the booth. I made myself sick!! I've never quite felt the same about them.</p><p>It's SO hot in there too with all the frying oil! Those people deserve a medal this year!</p>CherylThu, 23 Aug 2007 13:59:33 -0000
