The "Join" sidebar is not a widget -- it is required by the group theme and cannot be removed/moved via the widget interface.  You can, however, edit the theme to move it higher in the sidebar.

For exampe, in the "Hawaii" group theme, you can:

1.  Edit the themes/hubs/hawaii/theme.master file

2.  Find the <asp:ContentPlaceHolder ID="rcra" runat="server" /> tag.

3.  Move that tag up in the page, above the <asp:ContentPlaceHolder runat="server" ID="rcrb" /> tag, for example.

You should just have to move the single tag (but make sure it is the complete tag).

Could you post the change that you've made (full theme.master file)?

Thank you VERY much for this.  I was totally lost until I found I must go into the Themes/Hubs/<theme name> directory instead of Themes/<theme name> directory.
