[ - ] Feel like I need to do something community-oriented. Would Junior League be a good way to start, or is it all sorority-ish? 7 Replies [ Reply | Watch | More ]

depends on the league. i've been in the league for 5 years. joined when i moved out of the city and into the burbs. met a lot of great women, and honestly, i bust my ass with all my committees and projects -- it's like a part-time job... very worthwhile and rewarding... [ Reply | More ]
