Our school has recently limited us to 2 events for the spring. We already had one which was a "meet and greet" where we had cupcakes, cookies, etc and PNMs got to meet and talk to the sisters.
I need some help coming up with our second and final pre-rush event. Because we can only have 2 I'm really hoping that this one will be a hit!
Does anyone have any creative fun ideas??
we are a relatively small school & greek life is not very big here
our pre-rush events happen on campus (no going off campus to do anything)

Your SCHOOL has limited you to having 2 events, or PANHELLENIC has limited you? Please explain.
My piece of advice - don't have events!
Focus more on small activities and getting to know potential members with only 1-4 sisters/PNMs present. Use the +1 method - for every PNM at one of these small activities, have an equal number of sisters + 1 (i.e. if there are 2 PNMs attending, have 3 sisters there). The school and/or Panhellenic can't put a limit on how many times you invite a PNM to have coffee with you.
And visit Phiredup.com and get the book 'I Heart Recruitment'... it sounds like it was made for a chapter such as yours.
