Oratorical Contest
The Optimist Oratorical Contest gives young people the chance to speak to the world. This annual speech contest is designed to inspire the youth of today to inform others through the art of public speaking.
Winners of the oratorical contest are awarded scholarships by our local chapter and can advance to the district level for additional scholarships. Awards range from $100 – $300 at the local level and up to $2,500 at the district level.
