So its more trying to get these guys to do things that we haven't been doing for a long period of time. I just don't think they realize that we need to do these things and when I bring it up its like they don't want to take on the added weight. And we really can't kick anyone out because we have about 40 guys in the house and thats barely enough to scratch through with paying for the house. If we lose any more guys we will lose our house which has been ours for close to 100 years.

If this is the case, then the current members are going to have to really buckle down and recruit to build membership.
If all others ahve houses, it is a must to keep the current house to be competitive.
Will your National give you any help with recrutment? I doubt it with 40 men so, the next best thing is to contact as many Alumni as you can and see if you have some hard core ones who will help.
This has always been the bane of actives about not keeping Alums in the loop unless there is a problem, and with out them, you can become dead in the water.
I too wish you very good luck and if you would like, please PM me.
