I came into my chapter when there were 9 brothers. I was initiated with 5 others and today we have 27. It is great to go from the smallest chapters to one of the largest in a year but sometimes I wish I was back in a smaller chapter. Sure things are better now with more guys more things can get done and we can get our name out better, but many problems can arise from growing so fast.
One of things I urge you guys to look at is quality over quantity. Do not be so ready to take 15 guys because you want to grow when really only 8 or 9 should get bids. We were lucky to find so many great guys so we got both quality and quantity.
When I was an AM it was great to join a small chapter because of the impact I could have right off the bat plus the fact that everyone was so close with each other.
One of the problems that has happened to a small degree in my chapter is that tripling in size in a year has made it hard to get to know everyone so well.
I dont mean to be a downer and congratulations on all of your success but make sure you can handle growing so quickly
