Morale boosters??
 

Hi ladies! I was wondering if any of you all had any morale boosting activities or ideas for prizes that I could use during recruitment? I am also looking for a good poem or quote to leave on everyone's pillows the night before recruitment starts. If you have any ideas, I would really appreciate it!

We sing fun songs (Oh, Pat; Rah Rahl; Kappa chant, etc) before the rounds start and get really excited! We also turn on fun music and have a dance party...

At the end of each day of recruitment, we hand out awards like "Best Rusher," "Most Spirited," etc (my mind is going blank) and give out Kappa notepads, cards, blue soap, picture frames, & other fun stuff...

Here is a poem that I copied from somewhere on the Kappa forum that would be especially cute if you are putting it on sisters' pillows. At the end, you could include a personal message for each sister!


With Kappa Love, From a Kappa Sister
Anonymous

Just before you go to sleep
Think of blues both light and deep;
Think about the key that you wear
And Kappa Sisters, true and fair;
Think about the owl so wise
And a bond that never dies.

Think about the fleur-de-lis
And then, again, about the key.
But most of all, before you sleep
Think of friends you’ll always keep.


Good luck!
L&L,

Prizes could be given out for "best smile" "met most members" "best rush conversation" "best dressed", etc after each group goes through. You could give out keychains, "kappa kisses", "Sisterhood Sweets", pins, buttons, pencils/pens, notepads, cups, letter shirts, etc. Ebay is a great way to pick up a lot of things cheap-I've seen cute letter shirts go for as little as 99cents!! Framed photos/poems, fleur-de-lis items, owl items....it's all good! Hope this helps.

I just found some more Kappa-related poems and quotes on the members-only section of the Kappa website. Click on Leadership-->Alumnae Assoc --> President --> Inspirational Readings. Enjoy :)
