What kind of events does your alum group hold?

Melanie, you've been a tremendous help! Our group is pretty young; as a matter of fact, at 34, I think I'm one of the oldest members -- if not the oldest -- in the chapter. While a few traditional events might be fun (I'm thinking garden party/teas and that sort of thing), I definitely need suggestions that would appeal to a younger group of people.

Thanks for the suggestion about finding out what the members are interested in. I'm going to design an online survey that the members can complete, and that'll give me a good idea of what things people are interested in. It's hard to be "the new girl" and know exactly what people are into.

Thanks again!
