The Greenfield
Jaycees began October 31, 1982. Currently, we have approximately
30 members and growing. When you join
the Greenfield Junior Chamber (Jaycees), you also become a member of
the Wisconsin Junior Chamber, the United States Junior Chamber
and the Junior Chamber International!
Some of our signature projects are listed below:
We hold an Annual Easter Egg Scramble on the weekend
prior to Easter. Every year approximately 500 children
scramble to collect Easter Eggs filled with candy
and prize slips. It takes months of intensive work
and planning and in a matter of seconds the scramble
is over! Area businesses set up booths at the scramble
with information and activities for the children.
In 2004, the Greenfield Jaycees took over the Greenfield
Fourth of July Celebration. We have a parade, live music, a variety of food, games and rides for kids,
and Greenfield’s famous fireworks display.
We host Pitch, Hit and Run, and Punt, Pass and Kick; which are free skills competitions for kids to showcase their abilities in the perspective areas.
One of our primary Ways and Means Projects throughout
the year is the running of various casinos for
local businesses and organizations. Through running these casinos,
we
are able to donate additional money to various
worthy organizations and fund our activities.
