While all of the ideas have been good, maybe it is time that the line is drawn. The fear may be needed to be put in them to get them to come around.
Maybe it is time that these self centered little snots come to the realization that if it were not for the Alums who were Actives before them had not done the job, they wold not be there!
What is saddening is that your National has blinders on and will not really check into it more closely!
Do try to get some concerned Alums more involved and band together, give it the good old school girl try. Give a defenite time table and if not followed, then have enough power of numbers to get Hdq. involved more deeply!
If they will not do that, then, wash you hands and step back, they will shoot themselves in their own feet.
There will no longer be a Chapter there, and it will be on their heads!
Just make sure that they know that!
