Message from the President
Alicia BattlePresident [email protected]
What is so special about the Holiday Season? This question has many answers and most answers will depend on each individual. We are a diverse society, with complex beliefs and values. As I hurry about the community, caught up in the holiday rush, I frequently stop and think of what Christmas/this special season really is. Is it finding the perfect gift for that important friend or relative? Is it decorating your home to look like the magazine photos? Sometimes, it seems like it’s an overwhelming rush to try and get that bargain.
When I feel myself headed in that direction, I stop myself, think about what I’m doing and instead, try to focus on the realization that there are others, some right here in the Athens community, less fortunate than myself, and what their needs and wants are. My wish for them is to enjoy time with friends and family while enjoying the sights and smells of the season without worrying about poverty, hunger, and unemployment.
I feel humbled when I reflect on what the Junior League of Athens – each one of us - has provided for this com-munity. We are an amazing group of women, passionate about serving this community. We give of ourselves to help others … no matter what our beliefs or values. As just one example, if you choose a paper ornament from the JLA ‘Giving Tree’ during our October and November GMM, you helped people in our community this holiday season. For over 8 years, we have given to Joyce Ervin's Open Hearts Center through our annual ‘Giving Tree’. Joyce is just a regular Athens community resident who is not wealthy, but has given her life and home to her fellow Athenians. The Open Hearts Center, a little building attached to her house, is an Athens non-profit organization that provides needy families with basic necessities. A JLA Community Service Award Winner, Joyce offers them food, a shower, clean clothes, toys, and sometimes just a hug or a listening ear. This year, we will give the Open Hearts Center 60 gifts for the many children and mothers who arrived with absolutely nothing.
During this Holiday Season and beyond, how can we continue to give to and sup-port our almost 80 year old organization and even older community?
o Through tackling new projects or reflecting on the outcomes of established projects, o completing community service shifts, o purchasing cookbooks, o donating to our endowment, o decorating and supporting our 174 year old headquarters, finding Taylor Grady House artifacts and do nating them to our Hargrett Library Project,o and inviting friends to become effective members, each of us works towards making a better community, o keeping in mind the many families and individuals struggling that can take comfort in knowing that there are groups and organizations like the Junior League of Athens that can help them make a difference in their lives.
Happy Holiday! Alicia Battle 2014-2015 President

For information about upcoming volunteer opportunities check closureware or email Ansley Crisler at [email protected]
Joyce Ervin’s Open Hearts Center is a char-itable non-profit organization that adopts children & families in need to provide Christ-mas assistance through various sponsors. JLA has created the annual Giving Tree for Open Hearts & this year our members will provide over 54 gifts to a family of 9! A heartfelt thank you to those of you who grabbed a tag off the Giving Tree & purchased a gift to provide through Open Hearts!
At the November GM, we collected 52.58 for Change for Change. That brings our to-tal to $204.39. These funds will be distributed amongst 3 organizations: Athens Area Home-less Shelter, AIDS Athens, and Action Minis-tries. These organizations specifically request-ed funding for transportation to educational classes.
Thank you to the members who donated pa-per products to November’s MADDrive for Ac-tion Ministries.
Several of us have had discussions about what literacy means to you. We have already be-gun collecting books through events like the Book-O-Treat and October’s MADDrive for Athens Area Council on Aging. We’ve orga-nized books for Books For Keeps, read to chil-dren, and promoted awareness of important issues such as poverty, child abuse, domestic violence, and breast cancer. All of these vol-unteer opportunities have provided us with mission moments to empower people & to truly make an impact on the improvement of literacy in Athens. Please check Tuesday Tid-bits & Closerware to sign up & volunteer!
Please remember to bring backpacks & school supplies to the Make A Difference Drive at the January General Meeting benefitting Casa de Amistad. There will be a prize for one member who donates to the MADDrive!

Dear Junior League of Athens Members,
In 1935, a group of 25 dedicated women formed what is now known as The Junior League of Athens (Junior Assembly 1935-‐1980). Since the organization’s inception, members have worked tirelessly to improve lives in the communities in which we live. The Junior League of Athens has been instrumental in pioneering local programs such as Well-‐Baby Clinic, Follies, The Coffee Shop and Food2Kids as well as providing countless volunteer hours and funds.
When I was elected President in 2013, I immediately ran through the Taylor Grady House to locate the many precious Assembly and League artifacts to begin planning for the upcoming years. While I had to dig, bend, lift and even call a few Sustainers for things, it was how I fit into and my personal connection to the JLA history that made my research so interesting and so worth the effort. Needless to say, after a week of research, I found a great amount of history that sparked a few creative ideas for this year.
One thing that continued to be in the back of my mind was how we can organize this history before it deteriorates beyond use or is lost entirely. Beyond the economic value of our materials, there is the no more compelling argument of the value of saving our historic documents and material for future research and discovery for the generations to come.
Just in this year, I have had many encounters with Taylor Grady House and Junior League historical material that have taught me something. It’s like looking into a window that few current JLA members have witnessed.
In the hopes of maintaining our rich traditions, branded material, books, pictures, and other important documents of the Junior Assembly and the Junior League of Athens artifacts, the JLA Board of Directors was invited to tour the UGA Hargrett Library by the JLA Hospitality Committee and core Sustainer group.
During this tour, we learned of the wonderful opportunities that we could take advantage of:
• The Hargrett Library Museum will pick up all items from the Taylor Grady House. • A collection of pictures and material can be viewed by JLA members to identify artifacts. • Catalog JLA items on their database for easy search. • Ability to host an event for JLA members: A ‘Showing’. • Possible digitizing our material. • No to very low cost for storage and administrative cost.
After learning all that the Hargrett Library can offer, the 2014-‐2015 Board of Directors voted to officially archive our materials. Please join the Board in supporting the Junior League of Athens artifact archiving project with the University of Georgia Hargrett Library. Your support is a fundamental facet to the success of this project—it is greatly needed and well appreciated.
With gratitude and service,
Alicia Battle 2014-‐2015 President

Junior League Journey
At the November General Membership Meeting, I hope you enjoyed hearing about the League’s impact on Kim-berly Liebowitz’s life. It’s always nice to hear another member’s League Journey. And now for our second in-stallment of our Junior League Journeys, this month from Placement Advisor, Pattie Strickland…
Placement
After moving to Athens as an adult, I came to find that meeting new people was difficult outside of work. Thankfully, a co-worker was a Junior League of Athens member and proposed me for membership. I had no idea what would be required, what I would do or what I would learn.
During my Provisional Year, I worked on a Lunch & Learn project focusing on community fundraising. During the provisional class placement fair that spring, I indicated that I was interested in Cookbook and potentially leadership. No one was more surprised than me when I got the call about becoming Cookbook Chair during my first active year. I chaired Cookbook for two years and then moved to the Board as Communications VP. During my fourth and fifth active years, I served as Provisional Co-Chair and Chair, as well as a member of the Nominating Committee. Currently in my sixth active year, I serve as a Board member again as Membership Council VP/Nominating Co-Chair.
During my League experiences, I’ve gone from barely able to speak in front of five people without turning beet red to speaking in front of the entire League membership. I’ve learned the business of Junior League cookbooks and written policies and procedures, strategic plans, ad copy, sales and annual goal plans, agendas, minutes and motions for member votes. I’ve worked with graphic designers, media publications and national distributors. I was scared to death of our new-est members and their potential questions and needs (only to find out I knew more than I thought I did). I’ve learned from and adapted to Closerware, a computer system that I still don’t understand completely.
Most importantly, I’ve learned from other members. I’ve learned that sometimes goals need to adapt to the situation if something isn’t working. I’ve learned that someone always needs to be the devil’s advocate and that my ideas aren’t always the best - that listening to others, understanding the origins of their thoughts and experiences are very important and knowing that decisions and actions must be collaborative for a greater good and improvement for members and League as a whole.
I’ve learned to support my fellow members in their efforts as they’ve supported mine. I’ve learned to be both a cheerlead-er and an understanding ear during well-deserved vent sessions. I’ve met some of Athens’ best community members and have been so excited and proud when “one of mine” excels as a JLA leader.
Each year and each placement adds another intriguing level of skill and opportunity. I’ve learned so much from the past six years and can’t wait for what’s to come in the future!

Friends and Family Dinner
Barb Wright’s Home
For the 2nd year in a row, our provisional mem-bers were welcomed into the homes of some of our most gracious sustainers for the Friends and Family dinners. The purpose of these gatherings is for women in different stages of the League to learn from one another. Each home had mem-bers of the provisional class, board or committee chairs, and sustainers. The food was delicious and the conversation was even better! We owe a HUGE THANK YOU to the women who hosted and cooked for our new members! Haley E. Watts
