"Dead Chapters Tell No Tales"

REGION FIVE has the fever in East Central Missouri (in and around St. Louis). We lead the Missouri Jaycees in fundraising, growth and enthusiasm. Our region has over 16 chapters and is known for its member-driven teamwork and ability to hustle with style during Jaycee competitions. Our civic spirit enables us to contribute to our communities with a range of community development projects while learning important personal leadership skills. We also give high priority to just having fun!

We feel it is of the highest priority for our area chapters to be energized, active, growing and constantly expanding their involvement in their communities.

If you are between the ages of 18 and 40 and looking for a way to help your community or to make a difference in just one person's life? Join one of the REGION FIVE local Jaycee chapters. This is a great way to expand your organizational, leadership, fundraising, social and networking skills as you grow within the organization. You're sure to benefit from the many friends and relationships you will gain along the way. We are always looking for new people to help us expand our community involvement, bring new ideas, and add new life to the Jaycees.

Join me, Danielle Epple, the Region 5 team and our local Jaycee chapters as we work to improve our communities and ourselves.

Please go to the "Local Chapters" page to find the name of the Jaycee chapter in your community. Use the contact information and take the next step along your road to success, a better you and a better community.

And now for a little fun! Our theme this year incorporates enthusiastic, fun-loving pirates. So have some fun and follow this link, take a quiz and get your pirate name.
