Jaycees is an organization for young men aged 18 to 39, which stresses self develop- ment and community service. A Jaycee unit has been operating in Whitby since 1966. Both Mr. Galpin and Mr. Schilling were the guiding lights of the Whitby Jaycee unit when in 1973-74 it dropped to only three mem- bers, and they made represon- tatives at the regional level for the right to keep the unit open and rebuild it. The rebuilding of the unit since that time has been success- ful, there now being about 30 Jaycees and 13 Jaycettes. Mr. Galpin is a past secretary and past president of the Whitby unit and was particularly involved in the rebuilding of the unit after the president of previots years moved out of Whitby. In 1975-76 he is the treasurer of the Central Region Jaycees. Some of the activities he has been involved in include the County Town Carnival and Santa Clatis parades, Santa Claus House, public relations, unit newsletter, Miles For Millions, Holidays for Handicapped, develop- ment of D'Hillier Park, and numerous Jaycee functions and conventions. "Without his energetic enthusiasm our unit would not have been as active as it has been", the Whitby Jaycees said in their recommendation that Mr. Galpin be awarded a Senatorship. "In the past two years as we have been rebuilding, Steve has been one of the steadying influences". Mr. Schilling and Mr. Galpin joined Jaycees a year apart, Mr. Schilling in 1969 and Mr. Galpin in 1970.
