Introduction
The Vermont JCI Senate was formed in November, 1967 by former Vermont Jaycees who had received the JCI SENATORSHIP award. A JCI Senatorship is the highest award given in the Junior Chamber(Jaycee) organization. It is given out of respect to those local chapter members who have given above and beyond to the local chapter and community.

The purpose of the organization then was the fellowship of it's members, through periodic meetings and newsletters. Membership was limited, as it is today, to those Jaycees who are Senators. The total number of Vermont JCI Senatorships awarded is approximately 130.

As the organization has grown and evolved we now are afflilated with the New England JCI Senate and the United States JCI Senate. We try to attend regional and national meeting on a regular basis and are involved as individuals and a state organization in the USJCI Scholarship Foundation. We became a non profit tax organization in June of 2002.

We publish a quarterly newsletter to our members, and hold regular meeting around the state of Vermont for the betterment of our members and friends. We award 2 scholarships yearly to high school seniors and then forward the winners to the USJCI Foundation Scholarship program. In 2008 we also established the Ernie Chadderdon Memorial Scholarship which is based strictly on need. Our focus continues to be friendship and fellowship of our members.

As you look around our website, you will find information from our Chaplain regarding health news of our members, our recent newsletters, Vermont JCI Scholarship applications and information, news regarding our upcoming meetings and various links to Jaycee and JCI Senate sites.

We hope you like our website and will visit it often. You comments can be sent to any of the officers listed on the side of this page. We hope to see our fellow JCI Senators at a meeting in Vermont soon.
