If you don't hear back via email, phone them!

Good luck!

Call them, and ask them point blank, because you need to make sure your schedule allows you the time:

1) when are provisionals notified of their acceptance?
2) when does the provisional calendar start?

Thinking about it, you might've been able to transfer your provisional-ship from DC to Asheville. When I was on the Board of Directors for JLMiami, I recall a woman who requested to transfer before the year began.

i think it depends on the individual league.

Do the chapters provide pictures of their members?

I've heard there are some great breeders in the Junior League.

rudey, i believe you mean women of good breeding-not great breeding material.

No, no good breeders. Their genes and their breeding abilities will create competitive offspring.

So I sent in a follow up letter today saying that I knew my application had been received, more about why I was interested in joining and that I had had some trouble getting returned phone calls, etc.

We'll see what happens...

Best of luck PhiMuLady! Sounds like a great opportunity!

I LOVED my time in Junior League. To Mr. ALum's corporate relocations, I affiliated with several associations across the US. They were all wonderful experiences!

I just got a call and e-mail saying that the new class will start in August. The current class will be done in May and I will be contacted in July about when the class starts. She said on the phone message that they would love to have me and that there isn't anything further I needed to do at this point.

Just wanted to let everyone know.

Thank you!

My mom and my aunts are sustaining members (I think that is the word) for the New Orleans Junior League. I thought about joining but since New Orleans is about 5 1/2 hours away it would be tough to participate. I had emailed the Memphis JL once but never heard back.

Maybe this will help: http://www.jlmemphis.org/?nd=join

Thanks, I hope they don't have a distance requirement. I live in Oxford, MS which is about 1 hour 15 minutes away from Memphis.

Most Junior Leagues will allow that. For instance, for the Washington DC JL, you could live in NOVA and still be eligible. However, NOVA I believe has its own Junior League. The JL of Asheville is in Boncombe County and I live in Henderson County about 20 miles away and I am eligible because the JLA is the close League to me. But definitly call and ask.
