History

While there have been several different organizations that have changed over time, there has been an independent organization of Florida Senators since 1970. Originally the purpose was to provide a Jaycee type fellowship for those members who had been named as Florida Senators and were not active in the Florida Jaycees. Since that time, we have evolved into an organization whose main purpose is to promote membership in the Senate as a means of recognition for outstanding service by members of the Florida Jaycees. Through the years we have served as a speaker’s bureau for the Florida Jaycees and their respective chapters to call on for help. Any Florida JCI chapter wanting a Senator to speak to or assist in training their chapter can contact the FLJCI Senate President for assistance. Today, the FLJCI Senate sponsors the First Timers Program at each Florida JCI conference and convention. The Florida Senate is proud to sponsor the Charlie Stubbs Memorial Award for the Jaycee Chapter that runs the best International Project.
