To start: I am part of a local organization so the drinking rule at mixers doesn't apply to us. However, we don't allow EVERYONE to drink at mixers. Only those that are 21 (which consists of about 3% of our house) is allowed to drink at the actual mixer... everyone else preparties.
And we used to have mixers every single weekend. (I looked at a calendar from like 1997 and we mixed with everyone.) Now we just have about 2 and those are mandatory. We have had "informal" mixers before and those aren't mandatory. But since they aren't... not too many people show up to them.
Realize that people have school and jobs to attend to. And not everyone joined a GLO to go to an organized social every weekend. I say keep the mandatory mixers to a minimum and then have non mandatory ones as well.
