Awards from National Convention:

1. We were voted to be an organization removing Kentucky from a developing state (a state with less than 349 members). The path is not going to be easy to maintain. However, with sheer determination of the chapters and members Kentucky will continue on the path of success insuring a future of our children.

2. The following individuals were recognized as National Impact Leaders from Kentucky:

Laura Sudduth from Frankfort Jaycees for being the program manager of Outstanding Young Kentuckian & Outstanding Young Farmer

Alexis Payne from Tompkinsville Jaycees for being the top recruiter for the 2nd Trimester as a brand new member herself

Cindy Farley from Allen County Jaycees for returning the spark to the chapter while creating new projects for the chapter

Molly Rice from Frankfort Jaycees for being the 1st state at the National level for running Family Talk / College Talk and being the top recruiter for the 1st Trimester

Caitlin Askarpour from Covington Kenton County Jaycees for her impact in the community area and for being the top recruiter for the 1st Trimester

Cindy Witherspoon from Allen County Jaycees for her role as membership vice president this year for the Kentucky Jaycees.

3. Kentucky was the 1st state to run Family Talk / College Talk this year. Year to date only 4 other states have particpated in Family Talk / College Talk.

4. Currently 6 states are at growth: Kentucky, Florida, Iowa, New Hampshire, New Jersey, Rhode Island

5. Currently 17 extensions have been complete. Kentucky has completed 1 extension

6. Top 5 states in parade of states as of August: Tied in 5th Florida & Delaware 4th Kentucky 3rd South Carolina 2nd Iowa 1st Virginia

What a list of accomplishments. Congratulations to every member for the belief that the Kentucky Jaycees is the young person’s leadership organization of choice.
