from friend's experiences - the local society also has a charter awarding ceremony - where they present you in person with a 2nd charter. (the other one comes in the mail from the CFA Institute).

so might make sense to attend the party (at least in Washington DC society they have a new charter member's awarding ceremony).

Glad to see I'm not the only person with this question. Ordered my business cards today.

I believe you can use the "Charter Pending" language.
