Governor's Message  

Governor Eli Kelling, a Village of Pewaukee resident, is a proud member of the Lake Country Optimist club and the Waukesha Optimist Club.  His goals include improving public recognition of the Optimist organization and creating foundations for member success.  His ambitious personality allows him to encourage members to pull their own weight.  With a united front from membership, we can follow Tom Kendo's vision for us to "be the change".
