NFMC Junior Club Pledge
NFMC Junior Club Pledge
I acknowledge my indebtedness to good music;
I know that the music of a nation inspires or degrades;
I realize that acquaintance with great music instills a love of that which brings courage and lofty ideals and tends toward clean, noble living.
I promise to do all in my power to make America truly musical.

Getting Started with Junior Clubs
The Role of Junior Club
When a junior club or organization affiliates with a state federation of music clubs it becomes a member of the National Federation of Music Clubs, one of the largest philanthropic musical organizations in the world. Junior Clubs are members of a district or region within a State Federation and a State Federation is part of one of five regions in the nation. The Junior Division and Junior Clubs are vital to the continued growth of the National Federation of Music Clubs.
The Role of Club Councelor
The Junior club counselor or teacher must be a member of the National Federation of Music Clubs. Their role is to act as an advisor, teacher and guide to the juniors by encouraging them to increase their knowledge of music, further their leadership and performance abilities through Junior Club experiences.
