Volume 65 Issue 06

Hello Jaycee friends! The weather is getting warmer, children are counting the last weeks of school for the year. It is hard to believe summer is here already. It is also hard to believe that half of the year is almost over. We have accomplished a lot already and we did the best we could and it paid off. At the May State Board Meeting we placed #1 in the state on the parade of chapters. Congratulations to the Chapter, we “Made it Happen!” The month of May was a busy month. We had about six children come out for Mother’s Day Craft night, the children colored flower pots and then planted a flower in it. They also made cards for their mothers. Then May 19th and 20th we had about six of us go help out at the Upper Adams Relay for Life. Then the next day, about twenty-two all together went to the Land of Little Horses for the JAM Social. We ended our weekend with the Codorus Clean up. Nine of us cleaned up around the pool area. We are not slowing down at all in the month of June. Coming up we have the Halloween Parade Meeting, Miss Hanover Pageant Meeting, Kids Karnival Meeting, Car Show Meeting, and much more. CALLING ALL NEW MEMBERS!!! - We will be having a New Member Orientation on Tuesday, the 13th. Mothers bring your children out Wednesday for Father’s Day Craft night. Training is on the schedule too, on Saturday, June 24th we will be having an ID College, which will be full of training. Then we will be ending the month with a visit to Altar Rock. We are going to be having our next 65th Anniversary meeting on Monday, June 19th at 6:00 at Homewood. If you are interested in coming please let me know and I can get you directions if you need them. Do you like to golf? Fred, Jamie, and I are working with the Gettysburg Jaycees on a golf tournament. The tournament will be Sunday, September 10th starting at 1:00PM. We are going to be having it at the Links in Gettysburg. The cost is $80 per person, unless you have a foursome, then it is $75 per person. We can use help that day working the event or if you want to golf that is okay too. Mark your calendar now. The following poem reminds me of how the Jaycees are and how we should be. I hope you enjoy reading it. “AND THEN SOME… these three little words are the secret to success. They are the difference between average people and top people in most companies. The top people always do what is expected… and then some. They are thoughtful of others, they are considerate and kind...and then some. They meet their responsibilities fairly and squarely… and then some. They are good friends and helpful neighbors...and then some. They can be counted on in an emergency...and then some. I am thankful for people like this, for they make the world a better place. Their spirit of service is summed up in these three little words...and then some.” - Carl Holmes Please don’t forget to recycle glass, plastic, paper, and cans when at the Chapter House.

Community Hands at Work Liz Boyer, 2006 Community Vice President “I’ve come to believe that each of us has a personal calling that’s as unique as a fingerprint - and that the best way to succeed is to discover what you love and then find a way to offer it to others in the form of service, working hard, and also allowing the energy of the universe to lead you.” - Oprah Winfrey Special thanks to all of the members who came out to help with the Pitch, Hit, and Run! Even though we only had 6 kids compete, we had lots of members who helped to make this project a success!! Also, thanks to Bobby Shearer and Jason Quinnan for doing an awesome job with the Hunter’s Safety Course! We had 21 members of the community take the exam and pass to earn their PA Certification! Kim Leese… you rock!! Codorus clean-up was a success, once the group figured out what they were doing! Several members helped to clean up the pool area and the locker rooms.

District 2C Notes By Fred Baber, District 2C Liaison (717)624-9239 or [email protected]

Congratulations to the Hanover Area Jaycees on the first quarter’s accomplishments! I am so excited for you! But DO NOT rest easy! I know for a fact that the York Jaycees just missed 1st place ranking by a very few points! AND the Upper Adams Jaycees are submitting the next set of certifications and you already know how much the Upper Adams Jaycees do for the Jaycee movement! And more importantly, your community and your membership need you to be your best at all times! They/we all rely on YOU! Keep on your toes! Just a few short notes! I am sure Eddie will cover most events from the state level, but he may not know about this one yet. The Upper Adams Jaycees will proudly host the Region 2/Distrcit 2C meeting on Saturday, August 26th at their very own Oakside Community Park. Events will start at 3:30 P.M. There will be a day of good training, short meetings, picnic style meals of pit beef, rides through the 90+ acre park, good friends, and great Jaycees from all over the center of the state! Please mark your calendars for this one! If you need directions, please contact me! Also, anyone interested in receiving the Pennsylvania Jaycees Newsletter by email, please let me know. Although all of the Chapter Presidents and State Officers already receive the newsletter, you have a right to read it too! Get me your email address and I will be sure that you get this valuable information each month! (This goes for the District 2C newsletter too!) Well that’s enough for this month. I am glad to see you all working so hard, but there is still much to do. If you would like me or any other Pennsylvania Jaycee Officer to be at any specific event, please let me know. I will be sure to have someone there. Remember, the PA Jaycees are around to serve you, the member! Make sure we help you wherever needed! District 2C is Stepping It Up in 2006!
