Cole Brother's Circus
Committee meeting: Tuesday June
22, 2010, 6:30pm, Borders Books,
Christiana.
The Cole Brother's Circus
is coming to town August 20 to
22. It is the Wilmington
Jaycees' biggest fundraiser of
the year! The circus donates a
portion of the ticket sales to
our Jaycees chapter in exchange
for advertising the circus and
helping to park cars during
their time here. Support of the
chapter members is strongly
encouraged, not to mention, a
ton of fun! Bring friends and
family and support the Cole
Brother's Circus as well as the
Wilmington Jaycees.
Chairperson Abbie Uhler
needs a committee to help spread
the word around the community.
Other help needed
includes picking up parking
cones and other items needed for
the parking of the cars, help
setting up the parking on the
first day of the circus, and
collecting items for our
tailgate section. Please contact
Abbie Uhler at a_uhler@hotmail.com
if you plan to attend the
meeting or would like to be on
the planning committee.

Project Chairs
and
Committee
Members Needed
Are you ready to take a more
active role in the chapter? Do you
want to improve your project
management skills? Then we have the
answer for you!
How about taking on a role as
project chairperson for one of our
upcoming events? We have many
events coming up that we need
volunteers to step up and become
more involved! Some of the events
are as simple as providing
information to the membership, while
others might involve help from a
committee. No matter what the
event, you're never alone in
planning it!
Or, perhaps are you interested
in a specific area of the Jaycees?
Maybe it's becoming more involved in
the community, or helping plan
individual development projects, or
planning social events? If so, we
have the committee for you! Join the
Community Development committee,
Individual Development committee, or
Membership Development committee and
get yourself involved!
Please contact Janet
Dougherty at
ladyluckjan@yahoo.com if you
would like more information.
