MEMBERSHIP/

ASSISTANT DIRECTOR

Membership is the lifeline of the organization, and as we all know, attracting members can be a very challenging task. Membership Drives are one way to share and spread the word about the club as well as recruiting possible new members. Use of the internet, and your existing relationships to promote what your club has to offer (local and state-wide) can attract interest. Promote the clubs purpose and give people a reason to join. We may think our message is obvious, but an outsider looking in may have no idea why the club exists.

Publicity (especially free publicity) helps spread the word to women in your community. Whether it be a photo taken at an event, or an article for upcoming events gives visibility and recognition to the club. The more your club name and presence are publicized, the better chance you have of gaining recognition in the community and increasing interest in others wanting to join your club.

Social media (i.e. Facebook, local community sites, club website) is a great tool to reach a wide audience. When you use social media, it is crucial to include the clubs story and share the causes the club supports which will help to establish an emotional connection with your audience.

Each club should take a look at itself and assess what it has to attract and keep new members. Why did you join? Are your clubs activities consistent with the needs of the community and club members? What worked several years ago, may not be working today. Encouraging new ideas from club members should be an ongoing effort to keep activities current and fresh. A primary goal of clubs is to present themselves as an organization for todays strong and busy women. One that not only shares our purpose and promotes supporting community causes, but provides an opportunity for making new friends.

Dont forget about your current members. What does your club do to retain the members it has? Do all of the members feel valued and fulfilled? Or, do they feel overworked and under-appreciated? Is your club fun? Do the members show that they care about each other and that they enjoy working with each other? The work you do as a group benefits not only the community but your members too.

As Membership/Assistant Director Chairs, we have hosted workshops at CJW conferences and have been publishing information in the CJW Newsletter. Please feel free to contact us with any ideas or questions you may have.

In Junior Spirit,

CJW MEMBERSHIP INFORMATION

CONGRATULATIONS! As the Membership Chair of your club, you have the opportunity to grow, share, give and care for the members of your club. You have the responsibility of being a leader, mentor, recruiter and trainer to accomplish the following goals:

1. To increase the membership of the club.

2. To retain the existing membership and unify the club.

3. To develop an understanding of CJW and its relationship to member clubs.

Success in each area depends on your organizational ability and skills. Add your enthusiasm to your training and experience from Juniors and success should be yours.

How to begin? Be sure to gather all available information from your predecessor and add all membership materials you will receive throughout the year to your files. You should receive information from the following sources:

A. CJW Blue Book Membership Section

B. Junior Bulletin articles

C. Handouts from CJW meetings

Review these materials for direction and inspiration, project a positive image, be well informed about Juniors and its goals, and you are ready to undertake the work of the Membership Chair.

Remember that every member must take an active part in recruiting, but it is your responsibility to see that plans are well organized. A position of leadership requires many important ingredients. In your role, those especially needed are good will, a sense of direction and perseverance.

1. Show a willingness to try new methods help diminish the mindset of "We've ALWAYS done it that way." Encourage new ideas; you may find some projects could use a rest or a slight tweak to update.

2. Work to provide stimulating, enjoyable programs, workshops and projects.

3. Keep the lines of communication open. Your phone and/or email can be your best ally. Use it to follow up on prospective members, not just once but many times. Use it to keep tabs on the veteran members. They need TLC, too. Knowing that someone cares goes a long way in establishing a happy, productive membership.

To ensure a continued, solid foundation within your club, build on the following to maintain your membership:

Information Informed members are interested members.

Participation Members need their interests and talents fulfilled.

Recognition Everyone likes (and needs) acknowledgment by their peers for a job well done.

DON'T FORGET TRANSFERS! If you have members moving to another community where a CJW club is located, let the club in that town know. If another club notifies you of a transfer to your area, contact the member; don't wait for them to notify you. These are experienced Juniors who will be a welcome addition to your club. See Section 19-K for a copy of the CJW Transfer Form.

Your CJW District Representative (Rep) can be a valuable source of ideas and moral support. Attend district meetings with your president and brainstorm with the other clubs to make Juniors "THE" organization to belong to in your area.

Please don't hesitate to call the CJW Assistant Directors for help, support, tips, information and other materials. Your continued success is their goal as well as yours.

It is important to build a solid foundation with new members in order for them to understand the club, how it functions and what their membership responsibilities are. Encourage club officers and chairs to attend so prospective members will meet other women with whom they will be working. Current members can benefit by attending as a "refresher course".

Once new members are installed, it is a continuing process to keep them as active members. Open communication, discussion, recognition, appreciation and caring are integral elements that encourage members to remain enthusiastic, working members of our organization.

1. NEVER let anyone sit alone at a meeting, whether they are a member or guest.

2. Make EACH member feel important and needed and each chair appreciated:

5. Keep in touch with members over the summer; include members in planning:

a. Publish a mini newsletter update.

b. Plan a special summer program / Social time picnic, day at the beach, etc.

c. Send vacation postcards to each other.

d. Questionnaire at year-end to evaluate and find where interests lie.

6. Encourage a babysitting coop so everyone has the opportunity to participate.

7. Programs should be varied, interesting, informal, fun or just social time.

8. Have members be selective in undertaking projects to avoid being overwhelmed:

a. Have cochairs to divide the work.

b. Committees can have major, minor, or a limited number of projects.

9. Encourage open line of communication to President and Membership Chair.

10. Informal get-togethers call members and spend a night on the town.

11. Contact ALL members at nominating time to see who is interested in serving, have new faces on the board to gain new outlooks and ideas. Everyone has something special to offer.

12. Make an effort to mingle and encourage all members to do the same:

a. Get to know one person better at each meeting.

b. Plan a fun program - change seating arrangements to promote mingling.

13. Encourage ALL members to participate in club projects.

a. General meetings at flexible times - daytime and evening

b. Board meetings at flexible times - so members can attend if they miss a general meeting.

14. Alumni/Anniversary Night might interest members. Also, your alumni members like to receive invitations to special club events (i.e. holiday parties, etc.)

15. Compile "Who's Who" book with facts about members, talents and interests.

16. Meeting with new members at the end of their first year to get feedback on how they understand the club, what they enjoyed and how much they participated.

22. Keep in touch with former members

Its extremely important to get new members actively involved in the club immediately. Assign new members a simple task so they can take ownership and feel they are contributing and made a good decision about joining your club. Have a new member, work on a project with a more seasoned member to help teach and guide them through the process.

Involvement creates interest and enthusiasm!

CJW CONNECTION

It is important for your members to understand that your club is part of a larger organization, Connecticut Junior Women, Inc. This parent organization provides resources and networking possibilities far beyond those found within your club. The better your members understand their connection with CJW, the more likely they are to take advantage of these resources and benefit from the association.

There are a number of opportunities for your members to interact with CJW. Attendance at CJW events by all members should be encouraged. These events include Fall and Spring Conferences and CJW Executive Board Meetings. The CJW President's Dinner, to which all club members are invited, is held in March in conjunction with the CJW March Executive Board Meeting. This is an opportunity to recognize and support your club President. Participation at District meetings and events is strongly advised for all clubs. Your District Rep is a good source of information about CJW.

While CJW does everything in its power to hold the cost of attending CJW meetings down, sometimes the price of meals and space rental is beyond our control. To encourage club members to attend these events, please consider the following:

1. Have your club pay for all or part of the meeting fee for one or more members.

2. Conduct in-club fundraisers or raffles at CJW meetings to raise money to offset the costs.

3. Start monthly collections for "CJW Meeting Savings Plan" members pay a specified amount ($2, $5) monthly toward upcoming meeting costs.

Members also have the opportunity every two years to declare an interest in becoming a CJW Board Member. Clubs that have had CJW officers as members have found this relationship to be very beneficial to their club. Thus, you can help your club by encouraging your members to consider applying for a CJW position.

Some ideas for improving your CJW Connection include:

1 Include CJW news in your club newsletter & forward all members the CJW newsletter.

a.Keep your members informed on the process of the CJW State Project.

b.Let your members know about deadlines for scholarship and/or contests.

2 Include CJW and district dates on your club calendar.

3 Remind your members to check the CJW website often for happenings.

4 Reprint articles written by CJW chairs in your newsletter.

5 Familiarize your members with the CJW Blue Book.

6 Plan club or district events for CJW Week.

7 Host a district or CJW meeting or conference.

8 Forward your club newsletter to CJW Board members, have each committee chair forward her newsletter article directly to the CJW Department Chair. A list of the CJW Board members along with their addresses (including emails) can be found in the CJW Board section of this book.

9 Forward club information to your District Rep by the first of each month to be published in the CJW Junior Bulletin.

10 Request a CJW Board member or officer come to a meeting to share information, make a specific topic presentation, or have a Q and A session regarding CJW.

11 Ask Officers/ Board members to assist with club issues, communication, is always encouraged.

CJW INSTALLATIONS

NEW MEMBERS

It is important to install new club members in a timely manner once they have joined. This helps to make the new member feel part of the club family, and recognizes their commitment. Please note suggestions for installing new members.

Using a flowering plant

(You may use any type of flowering plant for ceremony)

By joining our club you are making a commitment to assume certain responsibilities to help us achieve our goals. In club work, as you give, so will you receive. Juniors will provide you with an opportunity for individual expression and personal satisfaction, as well as a source of many lasting friendships.

Members are the most important part of our organization. None of us can do everything but each of us has unique talents and can do something well. It is the individual involvement of each member where she is most effective that unites a club so that it is a vital asset to our community.

Our installation this evening centers on the (ex. African violet). The African violet is a living symbol of the growth and vitality of our club. Each plant is a little different, but it is essentially the same. A variety of these flowers planted together, creates a garden.

Our club is like a flower garden, comprised of many different faces, personalities, and talents which when assembled, give off radiance unknown to the single blossom. We hope that each of you will grow with us in friendship, develop with us in leadership, and share with us in serving our community. We hope that you will help us to welcome more new members to become a part of our growing garden. We are happy you have chosen to grow with us.

Do you pledge to work toward the goals our club?

(All say I do')

(You may choose to end with the Junior Pledge or new member welcome from choices within this booklet).

New member installation using candles

As membership chair of the Junior Women's Club I am pleased and proud to welcome you into active membership. We ask only that you be enthusiastic, involved and supportive members.

In front of me is a single large candle representing Junior Women's Club, a member the Connecticut Junior Women, Inc. This candle symbolizes the community service we have been involved in over the years. It also represents the light of our club and its members. Each of you holds a smaller candle, which when lit, will give a glowing light representative of the light you will give to our club. Please come forward and light your candle from the club candle, uniting us so that we can shine together in our work and daily lives.

Do you pledge to assist our club in attaining its goals?

(All say I do')

Variation:

President holds larger candle and lights each new members candle from hers.

You now hold a share of the guiding light that exemplifies service, leadership and friendship in this organization. May your light lead others into even brighter paths of membership. You are now a vital part of a major force of volunteers within our state.

Congratulations you are now member of the

Junior Women's Club.

(You may choose to end with the Junior Pledge or new member welcome from choices within this booklet).

New member installation using cookie cutters

Cookie cutters come in different shapes, just as our new members here tonight come to us with different talents and interests. Cookie cutters cut shapes from the whole and the resulting cookie is in some way better. The blending of tonight's new members with the existing members will make our club better.

(Choose additional wording from previous ceremony examples)

New member Christmas induction ceremony

(Use Styrofoam wreath holding the same amount of lit candles as members joining. One large candle is in center of wreath)

This ceremony is a special one, for the spirit of giving at the holiday season is our theme. Juniors give their time and hard work to help others around them. Our work in the community is needed and each of you will make a difference as you participate in striving toward this goal. New members bring new ideas, and we encourage you to express your thoughts, so we may make changes for the better.

The wreath symbolizes our Club and all the members. The candle in the middle stands for the officers and the committee chairs. Would each new member please take a candle from the wreath? This represents that each of you receives guidance from the members of the Board, and becomes an important part of the membership.

(Choose additional wording from previous ceremony examples)

New member credo

I shall pass through this world but once. Any good therefore that I can do or kindness that I can show any human being, let me do it now. Let me not defer or neglect it for I shall not pass this way again.

New member installation poem of welcome

To all our new members,

we welcome you with cheer,

As for our old timers,

remember your first year?

Please make them feel needed,

for need them we do,

They're very special women, as is each one of you.

So help them, and guide them,

and then in the end,

You'll find that you've just made another good Junior friend!

New member welcome message

Existing members you are called upon to share your experience and knowledge. You make this club what it is today. New members you are asked to share your enthusiasm and new ideas. Help the club to become even better. Let the existing members and new members join together to make our club even stronger. Together, if we give a little, we will be sure to get a lot.

Important points to remember

1. The CJW District Representatives, Membership Chair, and sponsoring club officers should be involved in each step of the organization and in the continued support of a new club. Clubs often fall apart within a year of their formation because of lack of guidance.

2. The CJW Parliamentarian will provide direction for the new club to establish their own set of bylaws and standing rules. The Bylaws of CJW, as well as the form for bylaws in Roberts Rules of Order Newly Revised, should be studied before the bylaws of a new club are drafted. While the bylaws need not conform, they should be in harmony and not in conflict. They should contain only such provisions as are necessary for the basic needs of the new club. More detailed provisions may be added as needed.

3. Applications should be processed as soon, as is practicable. Delays may cause the members to lose interest. Whereas receipt of the CJW blue book and program materials can stimulate an early sense of being in partnership with other clubs.

4. The new club president and her officers, with the assistance of the CJW Treasurer, must submit to the State of Connecticut the required paperwork to obtain a federal employer/tax ID number and incorporation papers with the Secretary of State. This important process, when approved, will allow the club to open a bank account and include their membership in CJW, Inc. liability insurance for fundraising events.

**CJW requires as a formality that the CJW Parliamentarian and the executive committee members approve bylaws for new clubs. A formal induction will be performed at a Board of Directors meeting.
