LXA1084, where are you from? ZETA?
Our house is @130 yrs. old and we need a new one! I laid oud off for a period of time except sporadic visits.
I attended a Founders Day 3 years ago and got so upset with the 2 keynote speakers that I walked out of the banquet.
I then and there made up my mind to get back in with both feet! Having decided that, I started a Core Group and began calling Brother Alums telling of the situation and my idea. Well in the mean time we worked to save the charter, an Alum group In KC area and trying to spread out to other areas, a mentoring group to work with the chapter, reinstating the Alum Golf outing, and other social functions to get Brothers at.
NOW we are back to square one and are working on design and finance plan for a new house!
By doing all of this, we have generated enthusiasm of the Alums and the Chapter. The las Founders Day We had more Alums there than ever before!! We have a hook to get things back on track! Hopefully in 1 1 1/2 years to get built!!
I know it takes a lot of work and I am still trying to find Alums! 2 last night!!!!
Now have @ 175 E-M address in book!
