ADMINISTRATION HIGHLIGHTS "We doubled the dues from $ 1.50 to $ 3.00 with the $ 1.50 earmarked for publications which led to the development of the current day MENTORS (started a year later in 1984)." "We traveled to 37 states and eight foreign countries during the year." "Developed a strong relationship with the Philippines Jaycees spending a week before the Korean World Congress in the Philippines." "During the year I lost my mother to cancer. One and one-half years later, I lost two of my board members, Bob Egolf and Bob Phillips, and my father." "Developed the rebate system from the US Jaycees from the annual meeting for the Senate registrations." "We met with Prime Minister Nakasone of Japan, Prime Minister Caesar Virata of the Philippines, Philippine Defense Minister, Simon Medalia, and Mayor of Manila, Ramon Bagaising." "We had the second Past President's breakfast in Hartford - the first was in Phoenix. At both breakfasts we had speakers who dealt with the subjects of economics, agriculture and banking." "Attended lots and lots of meetings and made lasting friendships with State Jaycee presidents and established programs for State Senate organizations to help send those state Jaycee presidents to a World Congress - Korea, then Taiwan." A 100% dues increase! It took a lot of courage for this years BOD to bring off something like that. We had just gotten the 50th state to become a part of the national organization and then we hit them with a 100% dues increase. It was needed to fund MENTORS, but it still took a lot of courage and a lot of salesmanship to make it happen. A growing pain that we all had to suffer, but it was for the betterment of our organization. |
