We do wonderfully through COB because we are laid back.
Every other month we do something different. One month we will do an informal rush three nights in a row and do a "bid day" that sunday, then the next month we do coke dates and have one night a week as a scheduled COB. We may do a make a sundae night, a movie night, game night, pizza nights, gattiland night, bowling, etc. Usually Wednesdays so the girls know if they are bored on Wednesdays they can come. We have a pledge class of 11 right now and in January we are doing an informal rush where we actually run through the rush skit and everything (it is a great way to practice, too!) and we will have a preference and everything. We usually get 20-22 girls in the spring. So we may actually make it to chapter total!! That would be the first time in years.. oh some more info for you.. our chapter is only 12 girls behind the next larger chapter on my campus,... isn't that great!! So that is our "COB" Secret if you want to call it that. It keeps people from getting bored with one thing. Some of our sisters areRAs and they get girls on their floor and in their hall.. we also get friends of girls and then of course we always try to promote ourselves positively! We have two people on panhellenic this year!! YEAH! And we are doing great! I am so proud of my chapter.
