The U.S. Jaycees Blue Chip deadline is January 31, 2008. If you have questions or need help completing the Blue Chip application, contact John Baine.

The Blue Chip program recognizes well rounded, healthy chapters, districts, regions, and states. Requirements are designed to ensure that Blue Chip organizations are offering well balanced programming for local members, actively participating in strengthening local chapters, and extending the Jaycee experience. Blue Chip is a year-long process. While no requirement is difficult to attain, it requires each state to develop and implement a plan of action.
