The guild I belong too has also had all those same problems. When I was president I tried to boost membership, participation, classes, and all for naught. From a membership of over 30, is now down to about 12, most are so wrapped up in their only little world I wonder why they even come to the meetings. No one wants to help, do any fun things, even the new president seems lost, unable to come up with anything to encourage or suggest improvement in participation. She looks to the last president at each meeting for guidance on how to run the meeting. I just feel like standing up & taking over because it is now not any fun. I am at a loss as what to do, & I'm not alone.
