Some years there were only two of us at any of the young alum events and others we get anywhere from 5-12.
To help get the word out I use Evite to invite all those that are interested to all of the Young Alum events. PM me if you want more details!
Hope that helps!

This is a great idea.
Break it down at least for a while until membership is built up of some of the younger people. Chapter events with any Alum invited back if they are near enough.
Try younger things. BBQ that may envolve young people with families. Singles night out local resturant, wine tastings, Victoria Secret Party(
), or what ever.
Then either once or twice a year have a full blown funtion of some semi-formal kind.
Kelly, I know what you mean and it is tough!
Good Luck!
