No matter where you are on the planet you have heard about the United States Junior Chamber of Commerce which had its early beginnings way back in 1915 when Henry Giessenbier Jr. along with 31 other young men formed Young Men’s Progressive Association (YMPCA) at the Mission Inn located in their hometown of St. Louis. Then, a year later, he YMPCA became known as the Junior Citizens and soon the Junior Chamber of Commerce, after affiliating with the St. Louis Chamber of Commerce. The organization has a long and storied history of helping young men and young women become true leaders in their community, state and nation. Here I sit down with JCI Senator #63877 Wayde Burkhart and chat it up about the real estate market as well as an upcoming Region VI meeting which involves six states coming to Des Moines on April 19 - 21. This was so much fun remembering and I'll let you join us for a bit.
Thanks for listening!
