Jaycee Creed
We BelieveThat faith in God gives meaning and purpose to human life That the brotherhood of man transcends the sovereignty of nations That economic justice can best be won by free men through free enterprise
That government should be of laws rather than of men That earth's great treasure lies in human personality and That service to humanity is the best work of life

Hello Montana! I’m honored to serve as your 86th State President, coming from my home chapter of the Hi-Line (Havre) Jaycees. After 9 years as a Jaycee, my passion for the organization continues to grow. I’ve served on the state board for 5 years and been active on my local chapter's board for 7 years, gaining experience in every board position along the way.
One of my main goals is to connect with chapters across the state, building relationships that will help us achieve our shared goals. I’ve earned a few nicknames over the years, which brings me joy, knowing I’ve made a lasting impression on those I’ve worked with. I’m driven and motivated, and I take pride in personalizing the Jaycee experience for each individual.
I believe in empowering our members by recognizing their strengths and creating opportunities for growth, both personally and for our chapters. My focus is on providing the resources and support needed to help you succeed. As your State President, I’m committed to exceeding your expectations and making Montana’s Jaycee community even stronger.

Hello Fellow Montana Jaycees!
My name is Shannon Wicks and I am the Montana Jaycees 2025 State Vice President. Along with my husband Dan, I moved to the Sidney area in January of 2015. I am originally from a small town in the Lower Peninsula of Michigan, where my families background in civic roles and various organizations had a significant impact on my upbringing and passion for community betterment.

Since then, I have held several board and committee positions within the Richland County Jaycees, Miles City Jaycees and I have had the honor of being the Montana Jaycees 2023 and 2024 Community Development VP.
My goals as the 2025 State Vice President are:
Assist 2025 State President, Kevin Clark-Holmes in continuing to build better bridges between the state board and local chapters.
Facilitate resources and opportunities for Montana Jaycees to receive recognition for individual and chapter achievements at the national level (JCI USA).
Revitalization of several state programs.
To achieve these goals, the state board has come up with a few ideas that will be implemented throughout the year with the collaboration of the local chapters. The opportunity for growth within our organization at a state or local level is limitless through teamwork, and I look forward to working with all of you!
