Description: The Richmond Jaycees were founded on 15 May 1936 by a group of fifty men who came together as charter members. Originally known as the Richmond Junior Board of Trade, the organization was incorporated 3 September 1940. By 1945 the Richmond Chamber of Commerce suggested that the organization change its name to the Richmond Junior Chamber of Commerce in order to conform to the national organization's name. The new title of became official on 28 June 1946. The group again changed its name in 1969, to the Richmond Jaycees. Initially created as a group for young, male professionals, it would not be until after a 1984 Minnesota court case that the United States Jaycees allowed females to become members of the organization.
