Stan,
Man I can understand completely!
The old adatage is really true: 90-10! 10 % do and the 90 % dont.
We have had the same situation and it has drug our Chapter down to almost being at the point taht i would contact hdq and say Hey, we need help there!
Of course, that is a no-no!
A alot depends on Your Alum Base also. Are they willing to coime in and work with you, not tell and dictate like the good old days?
Our group with a lot of dedicated Alums hold a mentoring session each Semester to work with the Chapter. Sometimes it helps and then at times it doesnt. If, it gets so bad, then there can and will be a major problem.
I dont know what actually happened to the SPE Chapter at My School, but just found out recently that Alums and Hdq. people came down and cleaned house! Left them with 3 Actives and 2 new Associates. Moved out of their House.
As much as I hate to think about it, it may jsut Kiill them, but help us, as we are fighting to rebuild. I have also mentioned about a House cleaning. Those that do not pay their bills, out, those that do not keep grades out!
Everyone gets very nervous when I say that!
Maybe it is time for Your Chapter! The Dead wood will do nothing but drag you down! Numbers are not everything!
Bro. all I can do is wish you the best of luck! It does take more than one strong heart to make something work!
If interested, PM me and will give you a Ma Bell Call just to chat and kick stuff around!
Do not close all avenues, jsut think about possibiliteis!
