The Lebanon Optimist Club’s Spirits of Optimism is an evening of music, community, and purpose. Held February 21, 2026 at Camp Kern’s Schweitz Hall, this 1940s-inspired celebration brings neighbors together for live big band music from the Queen City Sisters, delicious hors d’oeuvres, exciting raffles, a live auction, and themed tastings.
But this event is about more than a fun night out — it’s about hope.
All proceeds benefit Family Promise of Warren County, an organization dedicated to helping families experiencing homelessness achieve sustainable independence through a community-based response. While many people are surprised to learn housing instability exists in our own county, the need is real — and growing.
Spirits of Optimism gives our community a meaningful way to step in and be part of the solution. Every ticket purchased helps provide stability, support, and a path forward for local families working to rebuild their lives.
It’s a night to celebrate, connect, and make a lasting impact — together.
