One of my most favorite members, now a young alumna (she graduated this past May) has taken a leadership role in her local alumnae chapter. (

YAY!) She took me to lunch today (she was visiting for Homecoming weekend) and proceeded to try to pick my (limited) brain on ways to increase involvement between the local college chapter and the alumnae chapter.
Bear in mind that the majority of the alumnae in her city did NOT attend the local university, so they don't have any particular ties or loyalty to that chapter. Her intent is to increase interaction between the two groups, as there really isn't much happening at this time. I suggested a few simple activities to her and told her that I'd do a little research to see what has worked with other chapters across the U.S. and Canada.
Would appreciate any and all ideas/suggestions that I can pass on to her. Thanks in advance, you guys. I really truly mean ANY ideas - small group interactions, large group, whatever. I even told her "go bowling" (and I do NOT bowl but I would show up, just for comic relief).
