Monthly Focused Message · Each month this year is themed. Each theme centers around our mission and vision. The February theme is ‘Entrepreneurship’. · Focus: Running a business, benefits of being a small business owner, starting businesses, PMG’s, celebrating Jaycees who have started their own businesses (highlighting past and present). · Note: While taxes and legal documents are a part of this conversation, due to the varying state laws across the country, it will be mentioned in general terms only and recommended to seek advice from in-state counsel. · Each month we will also highlight one or two national programs or resources relating to the theme. The highlighted program/resource for February is the Project Management Guide. A copy of the Guide in Word is attached. Impending Deadlines · National Awards deadline is February 16. Awards PM Sandy can answer all questions atawards@usjaycees.org<mailto:awards@usjaycees.org>.
