Honeykiss, thanks for the advice.
Since my last post 3 years ago, I've been a member of the Junior League in my city for 3 years. It's really been great. I have to agree with darling1's post b/c the Junior League does train you as a volunteer. A good web resource is
www.ajli.org. Actually my league is beginning recruitment for next year. Our events have been posted on the ajli website as well.
