Ok, I must suck or something. :( It's been a few months and no one has called me regarding Beta. It seems like this is the time when groups are starting to reorganize, but I haven't heard a peep. :(

You Don't suck, they're just slow
 
I wish I could say that all chapters contact quickly and contact all the names they receive, that isn't the case. If you have not received contact, get in touch with International and tell them you haven't heard from anyone yet and you still want contact and they will be glad to keep after the local members to contact. If you are a prospective member, call membership, if already a member, call your Division Chairman or e-mail either. If you are a prospective member and don't get any response, we have a new program called chapter in a box that can help you set up your own chapter easily! Get in touch with International.

MoxieGrrl...
It's not you! Like I've said before, I didn't hear anything for about three months when I was a hopeful Beta-to-be. Unfortunately, some chapters may not be interested in a new member right away. That's unfortunate since a new sister can really bring so much to a chapter. Out of four area chapters, only one called me, and I suspect that was because they saw that I was only 23, and the youngest member around here is around 50 years old. It's a terrible trend, but some chapters rule out the younger gals because they fear that we won't fit into their chapter dynamic.

Please don't give up. It would be a terrible shame to lose you!

Exactly! Call HQ (they have a 1-800 number)

Laura is one who is on the ball! Hi Laura!

Welcome Tearose!

Trust me paperwork can get tied up in the home office.

We just got a note from my chapter that I did NOT exist! :D
So I gotta fax the note and my card to international when I get to work tonight!

Nah I won't go postal...I was in such a rush that I forgot the stuff I was supposed to fax in the car! I will probably do it on Saturday...when I will be working at the Customer Service Desk!

Hi Jill,
Sorry that you don't exist!!!ha Sounds similar to my recent experience with International-------I asked for the print out of members on leave, at large and legacy members in my area with the idea of starting a younger chapter. I got the print out and a nice note saying the names circled were really anxious to go active in a chapter. I had quite a chuckle to see MY NAME circled at the top of the list and the message to "call ASAP, she is anxious to find a chapter"!!!
I hope FAXing HQ will work for you!;)
