We'd stake out a table around 11 and that was the Alpha Gam table - people would come and go as they needed to but the group would be there. There was a Sigma table, an ASA table, a Phi Sig table, and an AST table every single day.

Definitely do this!! It helps SO much, not only with getting you guys connected but as a PR tool.
It sounds as though the older members of the chapter are burnt out from keeping it afloat for so long, and at the point where they just want to graduate and get out. It's hard for them to convey what made them so psyched and happy about AST to the newer girls because they're just at the end of their rope. They're happy they got so many new people, but at the same time uneasy because that means the chapter might change a lot. It's growing pains.
If that's the case, it's up to the new girls to take the bull by the horns and get excited about the chapter on their own. I'm not saying push the older girls aside, just decide that you need to set goals as a unified group and go forward. Don't let their outlook drag you down.
