Jaycee Ambassadors
What Being an Ambassador Means
The purpose of the Illinois Jaycee Ambassadors is to foster interest in, and promote the growth of the Jaycee movement at the local, region, and state levels; and to render assistance to the Illinois Jaycees in the form of speakers, judges, advisors, trainers, or in any other manner requested. The Illinois Ambassadors are strong proponents of the Jaycee individual development programming in projects and through competitions.
Illinois Jaycees are nominated to receive the Ambassador recognition by their local chapters. Typically, recipients have been active members of Jaycees for at least 5 years; served as a local Jaycee chapter President or a region or state officer or chairman as well as meet other criteria. About 275 Illinois Jaycees have received this recognition which is considered the highest honor bestowed within the Illinois Jaycee organization. As part of the recognition, each honoree is assigned an ID number, receives a certificate and navy-blue suit jacket.
