COB/Informal recruitment ideas
 

We are a little stuck.
We are doing informal recruitment this year for the first time in many years and none of us really know or remember what we are doing.
I just need ideas on what to do each night. We can get AV support the first night but can't get it any time after. They won't allow us to have tables in the rooms. We currently have 86 sisters. Anyone have suggestions for COB nights? Thanks!!

The trick to a successful COB is to make it casual and authentic. The girls who want the formal routine of rush will have done it during formal. The informal gals want to know YOU, so pizza parties or watching a movie, just hanging out are really winners.

Also, and some others might chime in and disagree, but I think 86 gals in a room at a COB event might be a bit overwhelming. I would maybe pick a team of girls to handle each event. If you have 10 rushees at an event, 86 members might make the rushees feel like they're under a microscope. Of course, if you have the rush turnout like we've been hearing at UF, then all girls on deck!

I agree 100%!

Even 40 PNMs with 86 sisters could be too much. Analyze the numbers and break the chapter into groups if you need to.

And let's be honest...you want your BEST rushers in that room.
