UBIQUITY: Time to Get Involved – April Events Coming Up!

We’re now less than a month away from the year’s busiest Community Events season.  We have a lot of volunteer slots to fill and we’re going to need everyone’s help in order to meet our obligations.

It’s an exciting time of year and we are going to show the community that the Western Maryland Jaycees can do many, many things all at one time. We’re gong to be ubiquitous! I’m excited, I can’t wait for April!

Please make plans to participate in at least one of these upcoming events and get in touch with the event leaders to get on the list and to get more information:
