You know what amazes me is that at each event we've had at least 20 actives and it's been a lot of fun, but there's no PNMs! We have started focusing on freshmen, each girl in the house has several that they have to call and get over here before mid October. Other houses have started trying to recruit girls at parties. The other night XYZ asked some of the girls in my house if they were interested in rushing and if they would like to come over for dinner! This was at a fraternity party on campus of all places! We don't want to resort to that but we want to get our name out as much as possible. Each of the all campus events so far we've had at least 10 people cheering in addition to the 6 people playing. That's about 10 people more than the other chapters had!
We've also been doing well in the events (4th in Kappa Kickoff, 2nd in Alpha Phi-esta Bowl) so that gets our name out there and our reputation going. I know our house can make total either next year or the year after if we just work. We're so close to getting there, this whole COB thing is just kinda hard.
PPL,
