Phelps County
Bank Donation
Phelps County Bank agreed to make a very generous donation of $3600 to the Optimist Club of Rolla based upon an
estimated number of shirts we will print this year. PCB stipulated that the donation is for general revenue and
is available for all Optimist endeavors. You will now see the
PCB logo on the sleeve of all our shirts for our various programs. Representatives from the bank will present a check
to our club on Saturday at Flapjack Day at 9 a.m. A photo
will be taken at this time and everyone is invited to be in
the picture. We will still obtain additional sponsors for our
sport and other programs. Our first program to include the
PCB sleeve logo is Girls’ Basketball. A thank you also goes
out to Sinks Pharmacy, Lindsey Shockley at Edward Jones
and Dan Collier at State Farm for their donation to the Girls’
basketball program as well.
