💡✨ Find Your Light Campaign Spotlight ✨💡
Meet Samm Nimmick, a first-year Jaycee already making a powerful impact as President of JCI Hi-Line Jaycees and Secretary/Treasurer for JCI Montana. Samm leads with intention, heart, and a deep belief in people.
🏠 Home Chapter: JCI Hi-Line Jaycees
⏳ Years as a Jaycee: 1
🤝 What Makes Every Event a Favorite:
Rather than one standout event, Samm finds meaning in who shows up and how they grow. From watching members discover confidence behind the scenes at booths and displays, to seeing others step into leadership roles that benefit local nonprofits and community traditions, the true highlight is witnessing people stretch beyond their comfort zones. Even Junior Jaycees stepping up with creativity and leadership leave a lasting impression. Those moments—paired with positive feedback from community members—are what make the work feel worthwhile.
🌟 A Defining Jaycee Moment:
Samm’s favorite memory comes from attending the 2024 Election Convention in Billings—before officially becoming a Jaycee. What started with hesitation quickly turned into a sense of belonging, thanks to the warm welcome and meaningful connections formed that weekend. Seeing the respect and care shared within the organization, especially during the recognition of a Senatorship, made clear what Jaycees truly represents.
🏡 Favorite Way to Spend Time:
Free time looks a little different for Samm. The moments that matter most are spent with loved ones—movie nights, board games, cheering at events, attending concerts, reading together, and embracing the beautiful chaos of family life.
🧡 Why Samm Jaycees:
“I want to help build people and belonging. Every voice matters, especially those still finding their confidence. Through Jaycees, I strive to create spaces where individuals feel supported, valued, and proud of who they are becoming. This organization once showed me I had a place—and now I hope to help do the same for others.”
✨ Samm continues to shine a light by leading with values, connection, and care for the people around them.

✨💡 Find Your Light Campaign: Haley Kelley 💡✨

Meet Haley Kelley, a dynamic leader and creative force within the Jaycee family! Haley currently serves as JCI Montana Individual Development Vice President, JCI Hi-Line Treasurer & Junior Jaycees Director, and JCI USA Mental Health Committee Program Manager.

🏡 Home Chapter: JCI Hi-Line Jaycees
⏳ Years as a Jaycee: 6.5

👻 Favorite Event: Haunted House — spooky season is always a vibe.

🎶 A Jaycee Moment She’ll Never Forget:
One of Haley’s most memorable moments comes from 2022 Beer Gardens in Lewistown. While working a Saturday shift, she was pouring beer, soaking up the crowd’s energy, and singing along when Bad Romance by Lady Gaga came on. A visiting State Board member she’d never met before matched her energy, turning the moment into a dramatic, joy-filled sing-along and bonding experience. That spontaneous connection became a catalyst for deeper involvement—and years later, those random singing and dancing moments are still a thing.

🎨🎤 Free-Time Favorites:
Karaoke nights with her people and diving into creative projects like diamond painting, embroidery, and bracelet making.

💡 Why She Jaycees:
“Jaycees has given me connection, growth, and purpose. The relationships I’ve built and the growth I’ve experienced are invaluable. Being able to find my light while helping others find theirs—and making a difference along the way—is something I’ll never take for granted.”

🧡 Thank you, Haley, for shining your light and inspiring others to do the same!
