Women--Societies and clubs Description An account of the resource The Stuart Jaycee-Ettes elected its first group of officers in 23 June 1947, and its charter was officially approved on 31 July 1947. Most Jaycee-Ette organizations are all-female auxiliaries to the all-male Jaycees (Junior Chamber of Commerce) with the primary purpose of being of assistance to the Jaycees and with membership limited to the wives of Jaycees members. The Stuart Jaycee-Ettes rejected these limitations and operated under their own charter. The Jaycee-Ettes completed many fund-raising projects to benefit many charitable causes, including hosting dances, conducting the "Miss Music" beauty contest (1949-1950), and hosting the Halloween Costume Gala (c. 1955-1960). They provided equipment and funding for the hospital and schools, offered scholastic medals to high school juniors with the highest standing, organized visits from Santa and Christmas parades (1955-1960), improved the Civic Center, and also participated in many other service activities. The organization existed at least through 1963. In 1984, the national Jaycee-Ettes ceased to exist when the Jaycees began to admit women. Collections includes photographs of Jaycee-Ette activities donated to Stuart Heritage by Floretta Bartlett (1911-2004), who was the first president of the Jaycee-Ettes, and a civic leader, historian, and Martin County's first female tax collector (1962-1964). She was a very active volunteer with the Martin County Library Association and Stuart Heritage. Having married her husband Leslie Bartlett in 1929, they moved to Stuart in 1938, where he and his brother Howard opened Bartlett Brothers, a radio and television store.

Women--Societies and clubs Description An account of the resource The Stuart Jaycee-Ettes elected its first group of officers in 23 June 1947, and its charter was officially approved on 31 July 1947. Most Jaycee-Ette organizations are all-female auxiliaries to the all-male Jaycees (Junior Chamber of Commerce) with the primary purpose of being of assistance to the Jaycees and with membership limited to the wives of Jaycees members. The Stuart Jaycee-Ettes rejected these limitations and operated under their own charter. The Jaycee-Ettes completed many fund-raising projects to benefit many charitable causes, including hosting dances, conducting the "Miss Music" beauty contest (1949-1950), and hosting the Halloween Costume Gala (c. 1955-1960). They provided equipment and funding for the hospital and schools, offered scholastic medals to high school juniors with the highest standing, organized visits from Santa and Christmas parades (1955-1960), improved the Civic Center, and also participated in many other service activities. The organization existed at least through 1963. In 1984, the national Jaycee-Ettes ceased to exist when the Jaycees began to admit women. Collections includes photographs of Jaycee-Ette activities donated to Stuart Heritage by Floretta Bartlett (1911-2004), who was the first president of the Jaycee-Ettes, and a civic leader, historian, and Martin County's first female tax collector (1962-1964). She was a very active volunteer with the Martin County Library Association and Stuart Heritage. Having married her husband Leslie Bartlett in 1929, they moved to Stuart in 1938, where he and his brother Howard opened Bartlett Brothers, a radio and television store.
