When a prospective employer is filling a job position, he advertises the position and asks his friends to recommend folks. He is innundated with resumes and must cull them to a manageable group that he would like to move to the next step: an interview. After one or two interviews with this select group, the employer is able to see both who looked great "on paper" and who he got along well with in the interviews. Based on these things, he can extend an offer to a prospective employer who will take it or turn it down (that prospective employee needs to feel it is a good workplace where they will enjoy the people and the work, and be compensated fairly).
The moral of the story is: you're a prospective member of an organization looking for few good (wo)men. They liked you on paper, they liked you in formal recruitment party interviews, and you dropped out of the interview process in dropping formal recruitment. They still have spots open, you have realized you do like this group-- so... they have expressed a preference in you, just as you have come to realize you have interest in them. I think they have two goals: 1) They want to reach chapter total/quota and 2) they want quality women who will be a credit to the organization. So yes, they want to reach their numbers, but they also want good sisters. Go to the event with an open mind and an open heart. They like you.
