The first six series are different types of administration records for the Arlington Ki-Wives, while Series 7 contains records from Ki-Wives International. Arrangement within series is generally chronological, with Series 3, Financial Records, being divided into five subseries, and Series 4, Officers and Committees, arranged alphabetically by committee name.","The Ki-Wives of Arlington was founded in 1951 as a sister organization to the Arlington Kiwanis Club. Like the Kiwanis Club, the Ki-Wives sought to foster good will and fellowship among members, who were wives of Kiwanis members, and to provide the means to render altruistic service and to build a better community. Also in 1951, the Council of Ki-Wives was founded as an umbrella organization of local Ki-Wives Clubs. Its name became Ki-Wives National in 1964 and Ki-Wives International in 1975.","With dwindling membership in the 1980s and 1990s, the Arlington club disbanded at the end of May 2000.","RG 102, Kiwanis Club of Arlington Records, and RG 197, South Arlington Kiwanis Club Records, document the activities of the local Arlington Kiwanis.","Record Group 98 houses the official records of the Arlington, Virginia, branch of Ki-Wives International, dating 1951-2000. Also included are some incomplete unofficial records of Ki-Wives International, dating 1964-2000. The record group measures approximately five linear feet.","The Arlington club's records document the club's activities, including luncheon meetings with presentations on civic topics and fundraising activities such as bazaars, fashion shows, and progressive dinners. Correspondents include a few regional and national political figures that the club contacted as potential speakers, such as Ivy Baker Priest (1956) and Patricia Nixon (1957). The club then donated the money earned to a variety of Arlington and Northern Virginia charities such as the Salvation Army, Hospice of Northern Virginia, and the Arlington Food Assistance Center. The correspondence includes many thank-you letters from such organizations.

Arlington at the time was quite a rural area, having few paved streets. The stated aim of the Club \"is to bring together a congenial group of women in this locality for the purpose of enjoying our mutual interests and developing their talents in a harmonious atmosphere. The Club is non-sectarian and non-political and as a Club sponsors no causes.\" Mrs. Frank Suter is credited in one history as a main founder of the Club.","Officers of the Neighbor's Club are: President, First Vice-President/Program, Second Vice-President/Hospitality, Recording Secretary, Corresponding Secretary/Newsletter Editor, Treasurer, and Historian. Each active member must serve as one of the numerous hostesses for one meeting.","The Club has always had separate interest sections that hold monthly section meetings for those interested in the topic. Additionally, each section is responsible for planning and presenting one  general meeting, coordinating with the Vice-Presidents. These monthly meetings are held October through June on the first Wednesday of the month. As of 1991 the sections were Art, Book, Drama, Home and Garden, Music, and Travel. Meetings not planned by sections are planned chiefly by the two Vice-Presidents.","To be eligible for active membership, a woman must currently reside in postal zip code 22207 and be sponsored by several members in good standing. In earlier years, zones for membership were indicated by maps and street names. In spite of these guidelines, the club grew to include over 200 active members. The Drama section regularly presented short plays or skits. In 2020 the club will celebrate 100 years of existence.","Related records for women's groups with a strong social (rather than political) aspect that overlap with postal code 22207 are:","RG 50, Records of the Women's Club of Waycroft","RG 73, The Records of the Williamsburg Women's Club","Record Group 198 measures approximately seven linear feet of records dating from 1920 to 2009. Materials consist of yearbooks, minutes, budgets, annual reports, and club histories, membership files, newsletters (The Neighbors' Club Newsletter), correspondence, clippings, scrapbooks, and loose photographs.","Scrapbooks are a large part of the collection, containing many photographs and newsletters, and give the most complete picture of the Club's activities. Newsletters and scrapbooks over the years show well-attended general meetings with topics such as the work of local or national agencies or current and historical events with high-profile speakers such as Washington Post columnists, relatives of members with high level government posts, and nationally prominent figures such as Sandra Day O'Connor. The scrapbooks also show that the section members took part in a wide variety of activities including trips to museums and government facilities, French and art lessons, musical programs, and other cultural events. Annual events pictured in scrapbooks include the May Book Luncheon, often with well-known figures such as Jim Lehrer, and the June Garden Party and Art Exhibit. Elaborate table decorations with artfully arranged flowers and refreshments suited to holidays such as Christmas and Easter are a regular feature of the monthly meetings.","Some of the scrapbooks have been left in original condition, while most have been disassembled with the photographs and other contents photocopied in place.

The Justitia organization brought the wives of a largely male student population together to support their husbands throughout their three years of study at West Virginia University College of Law. The founders chose the pink carnation and the colors pink and white to represent their organizaion.","Justitia, the Roman goddess of Justice, was considered to be the embodiment of moral justice in Roman mythology, providing justification for the organization's name.","Through all four decades of its existence the mission of Justitia, also known as the Law Students Wives' Club, remained the same:","\"The purpose of Justitia shall be to bring about a spirit of cooperation and friendship among its members, to extend to those members opportunities for acquainting themselves with various aspects of the law profession, and to promote the interests of the West Virginia University College of Law.\"","Throughout the following three decades after its founding - the 60s, 70s, and early 80s - Justitia members held meetings and published Morgantown guides for incoming students and their wives. They raised money through cookbook sales, bake sales and stationery sales and directed those funds toward receptions, dinners, dances, children's parties, hooding ceremonies, and other means of supporting their husbands and law students at the WVU College of Law.","While Justitia primarily remained a group of law student wives, the 1964–1965 Justitia booklet provides the earliest mention of female law students' eligibility in the club. Although the first female student, Alice Westbrook Morrison, graduted from WVU law in 1895, the female student body remained small before significant growth was achieved in the 1960s. Despite this inclusion, the club continued to be referred to as the Law Students Wives' Club. Membership lists from the 60s and 70s record members as \"Mrs. John Smith,\" for example, with the wife's given name following in parentheses. This may suggest that, given the familial orientation of the club, single female law students did not typically pursue Justitia membership. Later membership listings are on a first name basis, making it equally difficult to determine the ratio of law student wives to single or married female law student membership.","The club's first constitution was recorded in 1964-1965. During the 1970s Justitia joined the larger National Law Wives Organization. The last records available for Justitia are for the years 1982-1983. There is no documentation to mark the club's closure.","The Justitia Law Students Wives' Club Records consists of material related to the Justitia Law Students Wives' Club's activities and upkeep. The collection was compiled by the Justitia Law Students Wives' Club and formats include correspondence, newsletters, photographs, invitations, newspaper clippings, realia, scrapbooks, cookbooks, financial documents, and organizational records.","The records focus on the social activities of the club's members in support of their spouses in law school as well as general maintenance of the club. Subjects covered include the social lives of married women, university organizations, and the WVU College of Law, particularly as it pertains to the opening of the new College of Law on the WVU Evansdale campus in 1974. It also provides insights into the role of women, women's expectations in society, and the social and cultural opportunities available to women and their families.","The records are divided into seven series,: The 1950s, The 1960s, The 1970s, The 1980s, Financial Records, Duplicates, and Scrapbooks.","Series 1. The 1950s: This series contains three photographs of the founders and earliest members of Justitia.","Series 2. The 1960s: This series contains photographs, newspaper articles, newsletters, invitations, organizational records, meeting agendas, and officer's reports.","Series 3. The 1970s: This series contains newspaper articles, photographs, invitations, cookbooks and other publications, organizational records, including meeting agendas, officer's reports and fundraisers held by members of Justitia.","Series 4. The 1980s: This series contains newsletters, photographs, publications and stationery, and organizational records, including meeting agendas, and officer's reports, programs and fundraisers held by members of Justitia.","Series 5. Financial Records: This series includes financial records from the 1970s and 1980s.","Series 6. Duplicates: This series contains duplicate records, forms and other documents used by Justitia.","Series 7. Scrapbooks: This series contains four scrapbooks documenting the activities of Justitia over three decades, the 1960s–1980s.","\"Permission to publish or reproduce is required from the copyright holder.

Their first concert featured Holly Near, an American singer-songwriter known for her use of music in activism, and was attended by over 700 people.","This same group of women, spearheaded by Barbara Steinke, continued to meet throughout the rest of 1988 and 1989 and hosted monthly women's potlucks. In response to the growing attendance of these potlucks and the desire to create a women's center in the Kanawha Valley, the Womynkind Foundation started a newsletter, the Womynkind's Community Newsletter to spread events of interest for women and feature women's thoughts, poetry, and experiences. Steinke was the first editor and publisher of the newsletter, with the first issue releasing in February 1990 as the Women's Community Newsletter. The newsletter was named as the Women's Community Newsletter under its first issue and was renamed as the Womynkind's Community Newsletter for all subsequent issues.","Between 1990 and 1994, the newsletter remained a popular staple for feminist women in the Charleston area, with a peak of about 500 mailed recipients. Besides promoting the creation of the Women's Center of West Virginia (which was officially incorporated in July 1991), the newsletter featured women's events from across West Virginia, interviews with women in the community, women's commentary, poetry, and politics relevant to women. The Womynkind's Community Newsletter remained a separate entity from the Women's Center of West Virginia until November 1992, when the newsletter was brought under the latter's fold.","The newsletter was particularly focused on lesbian issues, and the group hosted a discussion and support group called Sisters in Bloom for lesbians.","Women featured in the newsletter include Faith Losaert, an activist from the civil rights movement; Charlotte Jean Pritt, a representative from West Virginia who served in the West Virginia House of Delegates from 1984 to 1988 and the West Virginia State Senate from 1988 to 1992; Kate Clinton, a comedian focusing on lesbian/gay humor; Suzanne Pharr, who co-founded Southerners on New Ground in 1993; Pam Nixon, an advocate for environmental safety and board member of People Concerned About Chemical Safety; and Robin Chandler Duke, best known for founding the United National Fund for Population Activities and serving as the United States Ambassador to Norway in 2000-2001.","In February 1994, Barbara Steinke stepped down as the newsletter's publisher and editor in order to attend school at the University of Alabama. That same year, the group hosted their last concert. Interest in the Womynkind Foundation waned following Steinke's departure, and previous efforts to find a physical location for the Women's Center of West Virginia stalled.
