ABOUT THE JCI SENATORSHIP
Being the highest
individual honor in our organization, the JCI Senatorship
is an award recognized throughout the world for persons who have made
substantial contributions toward furthering the philosophy and beliefs of
Jaycees. It is presented to the exceptional member or past member who has
distinguished him or herself in many ways through outstanding service on a
local, state or national level over an extended period of time. Senatorships
are restricted to members or past members of at least five
years standing (dues paid).

Past Events
2011 Christmas Social
The annual Delaware JCI Senate Christmas Social was held on Dec. 10,2011 at the home of President Randy Manship and wife Sharlene. We enjoyed plenty of good holiday food, drink, and dessert. Everyone had fun reminiscing about past Jaycee events, achievements, and just plain telling it like they always have. A good crowd turned out on a beautiful sunny day.

On the weekend of August 19-21, Patrick Mahaney, #51255 and Regina Cannelongo-Mahaney, #58562, Returned the Favor by helping the Wilmington Jaycees with set up and parking for their annual Circus. While wandering the behind the scenes to watch people feed the elephants, we ran into Al Hitt, former Delaware Jaycee, who most of you remember for doing the magic shows at some of our Jaycees conferences many years ago. Janet Dougherty, chairman of the project, was with Regina at the time, and Al was asked to give Janet a little history of the circus with the Wilmington Jaycees, which he gladly did. Had a great time, and enjoyed being a Jaycee again even if it was only for a weekend.
What a beautiful day for a pool party. On July 23, 2011 we had a great pool party at Galen Keene’s House. The Phillies were winning on the TV inside and the sun beating down on the group outside. There were people in the pool and people sitting around getting to know each other again. As usual the food was plentiful; hamburgers, hot Dogs, baked beans, salads, chips, beer, wine and soda. What a great day to spend with your friends. Thank you all for coming, I know that I will not forget the day.
Attending were:
President Randy Manship #61952 and First Lady Sharlene |
Kevin #43136 and Nancy # 44863 Burdette |
2011
What a great way to spend the Saturday before July 4th 2011, helping the Middletown Jaycees put on the 2nd Annual 4th of July Parade. The co-chairs Alan Parcells and Tina Macko did a super job of running the parade. It was hot and the crowd was excited. Antique cars, Horses, Motor Cycles, Dancers, Clowns and performances of all kinds. The music and the announcements were provided by the DJ Jammin’ Jeff Rankin. It isn’t an Election year, but the politicians were out. Senator Tom Carper, one of our own Jaycees. Paul Clark, New Castle County executive and many more. There was music and an announcer. The route was filled with on lookers especially waiting for the favorite fire companies. The Middletown did an awesome job with traffic and crowd control through out the day. Through all of this, the 14 JCI Senators helped their friends the Middletown Jaycees where ever we could find a spot. We set up places in the parade, directed traffic, gave rides to other senators to help out and keep track of great parade. After the parade we went to the Shing Kwong Restaurant for a great lunch and fellowship. What a great day.

DFRC 56th Annual Blue/Gold All Star Football Game
The 2011 DFRC Annual Blue/Gold High School Football Game was held on Saturday,
June 18, at the University of Delaware Football Stadium. As in previous years
the Delaware Senate was a force! We had 15 Senators in attendance, along with
friends and family, to help the Delaware Jaycees with the concessions. The
weather was great and so was the fellowship. We look forward to this Return the
Favor project each year. After the game, the Senators joined the Jaycees at TGI
Fridays for food, drinks, and shared stories of past glories. Many thanks to all who attended and we
hope to see you again next year.

JAYCEE CREED
We Believe:
That faith in God gives meaning and purpose to human life;
That the brotherhood of man transcends the sovereignty of nations;
That economic justice can best be won by free men through free enterprise;
That government should be of laws rather than of men;
That earth's great treasure lies in human personality;
And that service to humanity is the best work of life.
OUR CREED
Written by C. William Brownfield in 1946, the year 1996 was the golden
anniversary of the Jaycee Creed. Adopted by the US Jaycees and Jaycees
International, this simple statement of beliefs unites Jaycees around the
world in a bond of friendship and purpose. These 65 words have become the
third most important document in the lives of many, many people worldwide.
