We used to have our problems with this.....there was a core of really die-hard members who seemed to do everything, and then there were the people who just didn't participate in things and it really dragged everyone down. Usually all it takes to get interested in what's going on is to get involved and see how much fun it is....especially when it's competitive stuff and your chapter gets all pumped up and starts winning things, nothing sparks the sisterhood quite like it. At one point our chapter actually had to start making certain events mandatory. Once our participation was up, people started realizing how much fun they were having and how great it is to be in a strong chapter. Pretty soon we didn't have to make things mandatory anymore and a lot of new friendships were forged.
