HOW TO JOIN

NEW! Potential New Members -- we would like to invite you to our New Member Social on Tuesday, August 17th, 2010 at 7pm. You will have an opportunity to meet our current members and get more information on what the Westlake Village Junior Women's Club is all about! If you would like to attend, please let us know so we can send you a formal Evite with all the details! We look forward to meeting you soon! Please email us at membership@westlakejuniors.org


How can I become a member?
The Westlake Village Junior Women's Club accepts provisional members in the fall. Provisional members must fulfill certain requirements throughout the year. Once they have completed their provisional duties, they are installed as active voting members in May.

For information on new member events, please see the Upcoming Events section of our website or click here.

What are the membership requirements?

1. Complete a New Member Application (PDF)
2. Attend a minimum of six general meetings between October and May.
3. Serve on a project committee for either the holiday or spring fundraiser.
4. Work a shift at the
Holiday Boutique
and fulfill the baking requirement.
5. Work a shift at the Spring fundraiser and contribute either a donated or purchased item.

I am very busy and concerned that the Club may require more time than I can give. The Westlake Village Junior Women’s Club is committed to serving the needs of the community and members are encouraged to participate as much as they can. Most of us are wives, mothers, or full time employees who lead busy lives as well. We find that the most fulfilled members are women who have made their volunteer service a priority and are dedicated to fulfilling that commitment.

Can provisional members vote or hold office? Not until they become active members.


Can a provisional member attend events?
 Yes! Provisional members are required to attend at least six general meetings and are welcome to participate in fundraising, community service and social events. In fact, attendance is encouraged as a way for provisional and active members to get to know one another.

If I am a provisional member, can I be involved on a committee and do volunteer work?
Absolutely! For example, committee participation in the "Santa Comes to Agoura and Beyond" food drive is one provisional requirement to join.

How can I find out more about WVJWC? Our monthly general meetings are held the last Tuesday of each month, September through May. You are welcome to attend one of these meetings, or please contact our Membership Chair at membership@westlakejuniors.org
. Annual dues are $68 and must be paid prior to our Member Installation dinner in the spring. This annual fee is used to offset the administrative costs of operating the Club. A percentage of your annual dues are sent to the General Federation of Women's Clubs with which we are affiliated.       

If I am already a member, how can become a sustaining member?  If you have served the Westlake Junior Women's Club for a total of 7 years, you may apply to become a sustaining member.  After revision and approval of your application from the Board of Directors, you may remain in the club without obligation to fulfill club requirments. CLICK HERE for a Sustaining Membership Application (PDF).
