Bowling could be a good call. Maybe miniature golf as well. The good thing about miniature golf is that you could pair off 2 rushees with 2 members and get some good 1 on 1 rush going.
AnchorAlumna- good call on a service activity. maxdielr- how about doing something fairly basic like participating in a food drive for a couple of hours, and then take the rushees out for a quick lunch after? It would give them a taste of the purpose of the organization, and it would be a good way for you guys to watch rushees in action and make sure they are joining with the purpose of engaging in philanthropic activities.
Come to think of it- how about preceding all social rush activities with a service project of some kind? Looking at the kind of events you are planning on the social side, I would be worried that you guys might spend a lot of money rushing people who just want some free food and fun for 2 weeks. Adding in the service component every time- again just something basic- could help you weed out freeloaders.
Edit- just thought of something. If it is too difficult to come with a service project to go along with every rush event, how about preceding every rush event with a tour of/visit by a representative of/presentation about one of the specific charities your organization supports?
