* Transferring
If you are a financial Ionian member who is relocating you must contact your own club secretary who will write to the transfer secretary in the city to which you are moving. There is a special transfer form which will be completed and signed by you and your club secretary.
You must contact the transfer secretary in your new location and she will give you details of each club in the area and advise them of your arrival. It is your choice to decide which club you will join.
* Joining
If you are interested in joining the Ionian Club please contact a club in your area to discuss that club's requirements for membership. See "The Clubs" section for more information.
