We started with the idea to affiliate but did have the following that I designed: Coat of Arms, Active Badge, Pledge Pin, and Banner.

We never had a Charter as we were affiliated within the school year with LXA. All members Active and Pledge were Initiated then.

For a Charter:
1. Organization name.
2. Coat of Arms under it.
3. Date of Founding.
4. School of Founding.
5. List of Founders.

I found that by founding a local, we were all pretty new to this and made many mistakes, but the rewards were even sweeter.

I also found that I learned more by doing this than the years of college as we all did.

Good luck and I wish you the very best!
