We didn't do it for them, but gave them the opportunity to do it themselves. Isn't that what you want? 2. The desire for community involvement. To have a hand in identifyîng community ills and planning and executing action projects to help. 3. The desire for fellowship. To meet and associate with progressive young people of the samne age and bracket with similar interests and object- ives. The friendships are not confined to your home town - we're a national and inter- national organization. Jaycee Programs Jaycees are involved in scores of projects in every community we're in across Canada. Local units have access to superb leadership development material, public relations programs designed to help cut community problems, community action material, and more. There are almost a hundred -different publications available. Besides, Jaycee units operate scores of projects on their own - devised and carried out by local Jaycees. 1 We'd like you attend a meeting so we can tell you about some of the projects and activities we're involved in. Some Questions... .and Answers Isn't the Jaycees some sort of businessmen's club? Definitely not! Our members come from aIl walks of life. Lt is this blending of skills, talents, and knowledge that gives us the foundation to tackle many difficult problems... .and usually soive them. The one thing our members do have in common is they are ail young, and know the direction they want to head. Who can join Jaycees and what does it cost? Any young person 18 to 39 can join. There are no economic, religious, geographic, or race restrictions for members Of Jaycees. Dues are set by the Jaycee-unit you join, but you can expect something in the area, of $25 to $50 per year. We'Il explain the exact cost at our meeting. -Jaycees are young, and want the best value for their dollar. We do our best to make sure that's exactly what you get. Weil, after I join, then what? That depends entirely on you, and that's one of the secrets of Jayce success. We have many different activity areas. After you join, select the areas you want to be involved in, let us know, and you're off . But what if 1Ilm interested i something Jaycees aren't 1doing? Then propose a project! Think you'll have trouble doing that? Weil, first of ail we' can teach you how to organize the project, plan it, and make your presentation to the Unit. Jaycees are always looking for new areas to get involved in. The more areas we can do successfully, the more interesting Jaycee member- ship can be. Doesn't ail this take a lot of time? Some projects do, some don't. You establish the, amount of time you can spend on Jaycees. The extent of your involvement depends on you and no one else. Is running projects al you do? No. Jaycee unîts have a ful sehedule of social activities to let you meet and get to know other members and their families on a personal basis. Fellowship is spontaneous. You'll have to look hard to find a Jaycee that says we don't have fun. How does my employer benefit from an organization that my take mie away from my job responsibilities? First of ahl, you have decided if you have the time to devote. If you do, your employers will see a more efficient 'and productive employee whose leadership alty grows through Jaycees. He or she will also gain recognition as one who backs activities designed to benefit the community. 0f Meaning to Jaycees An expression of the spirit that lives in the hearts of young people who are involved to better the world in which we live is cited in the Jaycee Creed: 1THE JAYCEE CREED WE BELIEVE: That faith in God gives meaning and purpose to human life; That thebrotherhood of man transcends the sovereignty of nations; That economic justice can best be won by free men though free enterprise; That government should be of laws rather than of men; That earth's great treasure lies in humnan personality; And that service to humnanity is the best work of life.
