those are all good ideas, but surprisingly enough, we already lease the house, and it is 3 bedrooms, and we do have 3 brothers living there, and they do pay 100 bucks a month, ironically enough.
I've just heard lots of stories about (Inter)Nationals about how they funded chapters for houses and they ended up falling apart and losing their charter or becoming inactive. They help fund a lot of chapters that really never did too well to begin with. From my understanding, they'll help out a chapter with no house and hardly any guys. We have A house, with not a lot of guys, but since we win these awards, they don't help us. I think one of the reasons we try so hard to begin with is to get their attention to see if we can get some funding, because we really need it.
I should take pictures of our house. If you thought the house on the Old School special looked bad... well, you get the picture. I don't think there's been any serious renovations since it was built in the 70's. But hey, if it ain't broke, don't fix it, right? Well, last time I checked, it is broke. Heater don't work, TV is broke, doors are falling off. Our driveway washed away years ago... all we have is a bikepath worth of driveway and the rest is a damn BMX course we call our parking lot.
Tell me that (inter)nationals isn't responsible for houses and their renovations and all that, but uh... well, you read my statement.
The End.
