About the Sheboygan Jaycees
The purpose of the Jaycees is to “promote and foster the growth and development of young persons’ civic organizations in the US, and to provide them an opportunity for personal development and achievement.” The Jaycee Chapters are organized in the following manner: president, secretary, treasurer, state director and four areas, which promote the total Jaycee concept of developing people in every aspect, so they can be strong, positive community leaders. Each area has one vice-president and two directors. The four areas include the following: INDIVIDUAL DEVELOPMENT: Skill levels of members are increased so they are better prepared to give service to the community, providing increased professionalism when members are visible in the community. In the Sheboygan Chapter, we offer ID courses, which might include CPR& First Aid certification, financial information, estate planning, dining club, snow tubing, public speaking, wine tasting, communication skills and relaxation techniques. COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT: The projects completed in this area serve as workshops for members to develop the skills they have learned. Better skills mean better service to the community as well as increased influence in the community. The Sheboygan Chapter has a multitude of projects in this area: bowling for Big Brothers/Big Sisters, Lunch with Bunny, Easter and Turkey Food Baskets, Street Clean-Up, Relay for Life, Scholarships, Punt, Pass &Kick, Bell-ringing for the Salvation Army and Underprivileged Kids Christmas Event. MANAGEMENT DEVELOPMENT: Through projects completed in this area, members learn to plan, organize, staff, direct and control Chapter activities. The projects in this area also tend to be the ones that bring money into the Chapter, which in turn is given to the community. In the Sheboygan Chapter, these events include the Pig Roast &Mini-Bowling Tournament, Charitable Golf Tournament, Brat Days, the Haunted House and smaller projects like brat fry’s at local retail stores. MEMBERSHIP DEVELOPMENT: In this area, the Chapter strives to bring in new members to help foster the Jaycee Concept and increase our involvement in the community. After all, without members, we would not be able to complete any of the projects in the three other areas. Every member in the Chapter matters, no matter how much time they can give to projects throughout the year. This area also publishes our monthly newsletter- Between the Buns. 2010 Board of Directors President - Mitch Wallner Our Current Members
