Former UW decathlete, Jeremy Taiwo, is headed to the Olympics after winning silver in the Olympic Trials. Born in Renton, Jeremy is proudly representing Washington in Rio. Jeremy is asking his local community for help, he has a gofundme page to raise money to pay for all the expenses of going to the Olympics, “my transport, physio, chiropractor, supplements, poles, new shoes, and training costs”. Optimism Brewing Co. is throwing Jeremy and the local community a party; the brewery has promised to donate all of their proceeds during this event to his fund. Head to Optimism on Thursday, 7/28 from 7-9pm to meet Jeremy, enjoy a beer and wish him good luck at the Olympics.
Optimism is located on Broadway and Union. As their name suggests, the brewery believes in the power of hard work and Optimism- what’s more optimistic than dedicating decades to a dream of going to the Olympics!
