I have been interested in the IBM for many years now, and I have access for my 2 endorsements, but I’m a little confused. On the IBM application it ask Joining through a Ring. We have a local ring here the Bob Kline Ring 65.
My question is which should I join first, my IBM locale Ring, or the IBM? |

It works either way. You can join both at the same time, but technically you can't join a local ring unless you're an IBM member first.
No trees were killed in the making of this message, but a large number of electrons were terribly inconvenienced.

I'd suggest going on and sending in your application if you've already got the 2 sponsors needed to apply. Then, get in touch with your local ring and join in the fun at the next meeting.
Good luck. Mark. |

When I joined just a few weeks ago, the local president was a stickler for the rules and insisted that I join the International group first, then the local one.
You may want to check with the local president first, as my group did have a requirement that I perform a 10-15 minute routine to show that I did have a genuine interest in magic before they'd let me in. Of course, I passed with flying colors.
Magic! The quicker picker-upper!

As the Mississippi TVP, I can tell you that the bylaws do state that you must become a national IBM member prior to joining a local ring.
