When I was an adviser, the chapter planned a Picnic in the Park that included food, field games and awards-- it was basically a sisterhood event for the chapter members, but we invited PNMs to join us. It was away from the house, but still on campus.
It was a great way to get to know some new ladies and a chance for them to get to meet sisters in a normal environment. They followed up with some smaller events and inviting them to dinner at the house, and ended up extending bids to about 5 women, I believe, who all accepted.
The nice thing about this event was that it was away from the house-- "the house" can be somewhat intimidating to someone who is unsure of what a sorority is all about. The open field and picnic games were just simple and fun, and the "PNMs" were invited to bring a friend along. It seemed like a no strings-attached chance to have fun and it gave the chapter members a chance to kick loose and have fun with their sisters for a sisterhood event and some new friends.
I do think, no matter what you do for COR, you need to have a plan and a goal in mind, and several tactics and/or events and a goal from each of these, as well. It helps you to see what works for you and what doesn't when you can plan, have a goal and measure effectiveness.
