Whenever I see posts like this I usually don't respond because it seems like people get into their organizations and expect that their organizations will magically be all that they want them to be without their input and hard work. You all make the organization, not the other way around so create the kind of sisterhood that you want. Remember that it's not just about what the organization can do for you but what you can do for your organization also. Call a special meeting or at your next chapter meeting, talk about how you're feeling and see if anyone else feels the same way. Perhaps you can chair a committee that will be dedicated to changing things. The fact that you and your sisters don't do things together is probably the biggest problem so think of activities which will bring you together. Remember that everyone is not going to be best friends so evaluate your expectations and be a leader by trying to change what you do not like. I know one thing, you have to be there through the bad times also, not just when everything is great. I've been in my organization a long time and I've seen things change because of one person or persons who took the initiative. This could mean that you and your sisters are being challenged to work harder to build the kind of sisterhood that you all envisioned. My opinion...those who joined just to have fun and not to do any work to keep it going shouldn't have joined. Hopefully you will be a leader. Good Luck!
