LANSING, Mich. — They say a positive mindset brings positive things. I’ve got proof that’s true, and it’s this week’s Good Neighbors. With shovels and axes in hand, these optimists, as they like to be called, are volunteering to help transform three rain gardens outside Lansing’s Radisson Hotel. Mary Wahl is a member of the Greater Lansing Optimist Club. She joined the group so she could be around like-minded people. “I think people need to know there’s something you can do to help, and there’s something you can do to make the community better, and it makes us better at the same time.”
The Greater Lansing Optimist Club is a group dedicated to focusing their time and energy on the positive things in life, like giving back to our community. “We did care packages for the teachers that were just working so hard during Zooms. We painted and stained the park at Lake Lansing and all the playground equipment. We’ve helped them mulch,” Jacobson said. “You know, gosh, we’ve done backpacks and collecting of books for different communities like that for different communities and projects for different organizations.”
One of those projects is planting rain gardens outside Lansing’s Radisson Hotel. As optimists, the group loves to make people smile, and they like to recognize others who do the same.https://www.fox47news.com/neighborhoods/good-neighbors/good-neighbors-the-greater-lansing-optimist-club-is-making-a-positive-change
