What a wonderful and inspiring story. You all should be so proud of yourselves.

This has been incredibly fun and inspirational to read. Should be required reading for any new/struggling/fighting tent talk chapter. A few dedicated and determined members with a plan can make a huge difference in just a few years.

I think all of us reading this thread are wishing secretly that you are our sister! But actually, you are, no matter what badge you are wearing.

Ok, I'm running to Bid Night, but I wanted to let you know we will have 27 amazing young women joining our chapter as new members, including Lily, Zoe and Danielle! This is the most we've ever had - last year there were 12 on Bid Day and the year before there were 9 or 10. Through COB we should be able to make quota!


SO EXCITED!! I'll post again later tonight!

Silverpearls, Congrats! This has got to be exciting!

Now, I come from a chapter in a similar situation to yours. What were some of the strategies you used to stop the negative image, and to have such a successful recruitment? I'd love to hear your thoughts!

And now, since we're all said and done, are you willing to reveal your affiliation?

Oh, girl, this is so great. I'm really very happy for all of you!



...and when you come back, I hope you tell us who you are. I agree with whoever said it first above- I think we all hope you're our sister! :)

Yayyyy how exciting! Congratulations, silverpearls!

Many congratulations silverpearls and to the ladies of Venus. Please come back to let us know how COB goes and to show us pictures. I'm sure we'd love to know who "Venus" is!

This was a great story and example of how hard work can start to turn a chapter around. Congrats to you and your sisters!

Congratulations on your wonderful new sisters! :)

This has been a great story to read. Keep us updated on what's going on with your girls.

Also, I know people have requested pictures but only post what you feel comfortable posting. I know you would like to respect the privacy of your chapter and your sisters.

SWTXBelle 02-05-2009 11:39 PM

Great story - congratulations to you and your sisters! There's nothing better than a successful recruitment. :)

Congratulations on a successful recruitment!

Did any of the PNMs you were "less than thrilled" about become new members?
