Junior Chamber International (JCI) St. Vincent, also known as the St. Vincent Jaycees, has announced the installation of its 2026 Board of Directors, which took place on Saturday, January 3, 2026, at the La Vue Hotel.
The 2026 Board of Directors, which constitutes the executive authority of JCI St. Vincent and is responsible for managing the chapter’s affairs, comprises President Dominic Horne, Immediate Past President Lisha Beache, Secretary General Nigel Thomas, Executive Vice President Tyana Stewart, and Vice Presidents Delon DaSilva and Omarr Edwards. Past National Executive Assistant and Past President Wanika Ashton was also appointed General Legal Counsel.
The installation ceremony celebrated the achievements of the organisation during its 2025 administrative year, led by outgoing President Ms Lisha Beache. Highlights included the successful hosting of the 65th National Convention of JCI West Indies, marking the return of the convention to St. Vincent after more than a decade, as well as impactful community projects carried out in partnership with St Benedict’s School and the School for Children with Special Needs.
Members and well-wishers were inspired by the Charge to Leadership delivered by JCI Senator Dennis Gaymes, who emphasised the vital role young leaders play in shaping the future of their communities. He encouraged the newly installed board to lead with integrity and resilience, reminding them to remain grounded in JCI’s creed, mission and vision as they navigate the challenges ahead.
Newly installed 2026 President, Mr Dominic Horne, delivered his inaugural address, expressing appreciation to the 2025 Board for its service and achievements. He also announced the theme for the 2026 administrative year, “Be Better: Unity in Structure, Excellence in Service.”
The evening concluded with the induction of new members, welcoming them into a proud legacy of youthful leadership, service and civic engagement.
JCI St. Vincent said it extends sincere thanks to its sponsors, patrons, members and alumni, whose support made the 2025 year a success, particularly during the National Convention process.
