Happy Spring and Summer My Fellow Senators,
Can't believe this is my last newsletter article to you as your State Senate President. My, how these past two years have gone by so quickly. We've enjoyed some really good times and wonderful memories along the way.
Our last meeting was held at Wisconsin Badger Camp on May 1st. All of our new officers for 2010-2011 have been elected and are as follows.
Your new President will be Barb Hoefer,
Vice President--Janet Byrne,
Treasurer--Brian Trautman
Secretary/Newsletter Editor--Paul Burkard.
We still have a few spots open for directors, so if you'd like to help out with the Senate please feel free to contact Barb Hoefer. She now has an e-mail address and you can contact her at bhoefer55984@yahoo.com.
Paul Burkard and I will be working on a CPG for spring clean-up at Badger Camp for next year. We would really like to make this work out so all of us Senators can get together and have a fun and relaxing weekend at the camp and also help them do some sprucing up before they open the camp up for the year to the many disabled people that will be attending from all over the area and other states. The date is tentatively planned for Saturday, May 7th, 2011. I know it's a long way away, but we really want to make this a yearly event, so please mark it on your calendar. You'll see updates in the upcoming newsletters.
La Vonne and Vern Acker will be hosting their annual Ackerfest once again this August 21st. We've really enjoyed their hospitality, food, beverages, entertainment and getting reacquainted with our fellow Senators. Not even a cold, rainy weekend in August can put a damper on Ackerfest. Please mark this one on your calendar. You won't want to miss it :-)
The two really big events that we have coming up over the next three months are going to be the Regional fall board of directors meeting in Bloomington, MN on Sept. 24th to the 26th. We are looking for lots of representation from our WI Senators. Please try to attend this awesome event. Our committee has put on a wonderful calendar of events for the weekend including lots of hospitality, socializing, a dinner boat cruise, transportation to the Mall of America and some very nice goodie bags full of mementos from all seven states in our region.
Two weeks after that WI will be hosting the fall region VI meeting in Pewaukee. We are going to need all WI Senators to help out at this one and show our fellow Senators that WI is a very hospitable state as well. If there are any leftover goodie bags from Bloomington, we will be filling them up and passing them out as well. We are looking for products to put into them for Bloomington and Pewaukee, so if you have anything from your place of work or business that would be willing to donate items, please get a hold of me as I'm in charge of this.
Well, I do believe that about sums up the final newsletter that I have for all of my fellow WI Senators. I hope you have a happy, healthy and safe summer and I look forward to seeing a lot of you throughout the next three months.

Donations Needed ! Can you please help ?!
Hello All
Attached is a copy of a donation request letter that I would like you to pass along to businesses(or in your own office) that would be willing to donate to our region VI meeting that we will be hosting in September.
I have received 300 recyclable blue bags from the Wal Mart in my home town. All we need are some items to put in them so our guests will have something to take back home and remember what a great time they had in our region and some specials things keep.
If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to give me a call.

To Whom It May Concern:
When we were active Jaycees, (Junior Chamber International) we received the honor of becoming JCI Senators. This is the highest honor bestowed upon our members world-wide. We are all members of the US JCI Senate, and our region includes the states of Iowa, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, North Dakota, South Dakota, and Wisconsin.
This September, our region will be hosting JCI Senators from across the nation and also JCI Senators from Canada and some of the European countries for the US JCI Senate Fall Board of Directors meeting. On September 23rd, we are anticipating approximately 300 JCI Senators and guests spending the weekend with us in Bloomington, MN at the Holiday Inn & Suites.
Our organization has a foundation that grants scholarships to high school students for their college education. Each of our states award 2 scholarships each year to deserving students. Each of our states also have individual projects unique to their state. Some of our states raise funds for camps for the developmentally & physically disabled, some raise funds for families that are having difficult times due to an illness in their family, as well as other worthy projects or programs.
We are looking forward to the arrival of our visitors for the meetings and wish to showcase not only the state of Minnesota, but the other 6 states that are also in our region. When our guests arrive to register, they will also receive a “welcome bag”. Our hopes are that the welcome bags will contain small items from each of our 7 states that our guests can take back home with them. Examples of items received in past welcome bags have included individual or small samples of cosmetic products, food products, pens, notepads, playing cards, recipe pamphlets, magnets, golf tees, key chains, coupons for free products or food to get when back in our home area, etc.
We are asking companies who have their headquarters or facilities in one of our 7 states if they would be able to donate 300 items for each of our welcome bags. If that is not possible but a smaller size donation is, it would still be greatly appreciated, since the item(s) will be randomly placed in the bags for our guests.
In return, as an appreciation of our thanks, we would advertise your donation on banners which will be on display in our hospitality room and also in the program book that each individual receives. Many of us have returned to our home states after our national meetings and purchased products from companies that donated items for our welcome bags.
You can have your donation sent to one of our meeting chairs in Maplewood, MN or Prairie du Chien, WI. If you prefer, a JCI Senator living in your area could personally pick up the donation.
If you choose to send your donation, you may send the items to our Region VI National V.P: Randy Young 2367 East Bush Avenue Maplewood, MN 55119
or our welcome bag committee chair: Rhonda Stubbe 328 North Beaumont Road Prairie du Chien, WI 53821
Thank you in advance for your time, kind consideration, and donation to us.

A message from Incoming WI JCI Senate President
The 2010-2011 Senate year is about to start and as President, I know it will be a fun and exciting year. Lets all take time to give our support to the Wisconsin Jaycee organization. As we all know, they are OUR future.
It’s time for the Wisconsin Senate to be visible. Those of who are attending Jaycee and Senate events, I encourage you to bring another Senator with you to that event. We have many local, state and national events that are close to home this year. Please see the calendar of events for some of these dates.
Lets all have fun this year and renew old friendships and make new ones.
I am looking forward to seeing many of you at any of this years events.
In Senate friendship,
Barb Hoefer

A message from Incoming WI JCI Senate VP
Hello WI JCI Senators!!
My name is Janet Byrne, Senator #57246, and I’ll be serving as Vice-President this year for the Wisconsin JCI Senate. To give you a little background, I was a charter member of the former Belmont Area Jaycees, and I’ve held almost every chapter office, including chapter president. I’ve also served at SW Region (the former Region 1) as District Director and then as Regional Director in 1996-97, and in addition served WIJC Speak-up/Write-Up P.M. and presidential assistant to former WIJC Pres. Brian White. In addition to being on the Senate Board, I’m also secretary for the Jaycees of Wis. Foundation and am a Badger Corp. member. I’m employed as secretary and case administrator for the Chatterton & Griffith Law Firm and Bankruptcy Trustee William Chatterton in Madison.
I look forward to working with everyone in the Wisconsin JCI Senate and with the Wisconsin Jaycee chapters during this next Senate year. My goals, like all of the Wis. JCI Senate, are to assist any of the Wisconsin Jaycee chapters as needed, and to help with the growth and promotion of the Wisconsin Junior Chamber. Let’s do all that we can to promote the Wis. Junior Chamber and make this a great year for the Wisconsin JCI Senate and the Wisconsin Junior Chamber!!
