Lots of times, it depends on the size of the chapter, too. Some people get "lost" in a large chapter, while others are carrying an office AND a chairmanship in a small chapter!

One good way to get involved is to offer to help one of the chairman, if it's okay with the Executive Committee (or whatever it's called). By doing so, you will learn a little bit more about KD, AND be sending the message that you really are willing to work. What the other posters are saying is true - start with a chairmanship (or as an assistant), then work your way up. Most GLOs have some chairmanships which are more or less for first year members, so they can see who is a worker and who isn't.

My own first Chairmanship was for Recommendations, but after Recruitment, I was bored silly. Another sister had to drop out, and I was able to pick up her Spirit Chair. The next year, I was Chaplain; the year after that, New Member Vice President.

Good luck!
