How to Write a CPG (Chairman's Planning Guide)
"How to write a CPG" will run Tuesday, February 21, 2006 from 7:00 pm to 9:00 pm at the Greensboro Jaycee Office.
The following is a description of the event:
A new member of the Greensboro Jaycees thought it would be beneficial to offer a workshop for new Jaycees to learn how to effectively write a CPG (Chairman's Planning Guide) and become more effective project managers.
This session will teach attendees how to create a CPG by following the proper steps and will include an opportunity for attendees to brainstorm to think about future projects they might want to chair. This should also be an opportunity for attendees to learn effective preparation and planning skills that they can take with them to the workplace.
This excerpt was taken from the following link. To learn more about the Greensboro Jaycees go to: www.jaycee.org
(The Greensboro Jaycees are the Official Volunteer Host of the tournament currently known as the Chrysler Classic of Greensboro.)

2006 Memory Walk by Lynn Grayson
"The walk will be held at Jaycee Park on June 3, 2006. The 2005 Memory Walk raised $54,989, and this year’s goal is $80,000. Memory Walk is the signature event of the Alzheimer’s Association, raising much needed awareness and funds for local programs and services benefiting families and individuals living with Alzheimer’s disease.
The Alzheimer’s Association chose to honor Carson Bain, who suffers from Alzheimer’s disease, for his lifetime of civic involvement in Greensboro and Guilford County. Mr. Bain is not only a former mayor of Greensboro, but also a Guilford County Commissioner, Greensboro School Board Member, GGO General Chairman, president of the Greensboro Jaycees, and founder of the Greensboro Generals Hockey Team. He started Bain Oil Company in 1941 by selling oil in five-gallon containers.
Bobby Bain, Carson’s son and current President of Bain Oil Company, will be this year’s Memory Walk chairman. “We hope to have over 1000 walkers this year and bring much needed awareness about this disease as well as hope for those families affected by it,” said Bain.
All proceeds from the Memory Walk benefit local programs provided by the Alzheimer’s Association Western Carolina Chapter including the 24-hour Helpline, support groups, educational programs and training for caregivers. One in ten persons over age 65 and nearly half of those over 85 have Alzheimer’s disease. An estimated 14 million Americans will have Alzheimer’s disease by the middle of this century. Former President Ronald Reagan and Greensboro’s own, Kathleen Bryan, lost their battle against Alzheimer’s disease. Carson Bain has suffered from Alzheimer’s since 1999. He presently lives in his home with his wife and caregiver, Fanny Bain.
If you are interested in becoming a Sponsor or want to form a team to honor Carson Bain and his fight against Alzheimer’s disease, go to www.memorywalknc.org or contact Bobby Bain at 336-299-0531 rcbain@bainonline.com."

Rhinoceros Times Cartoon
With all the trouble being caused by cartoons in the world today, I thought I'd dig out this cartoon that ran in The Rhinoceros Times on Thursday, May 2, 2002. I guess Geof Brooks was saying that the Greensboro Jaycees were asleep at the wheel?
1997-98 Greensboro Jaycee Board of Directors Crest
