Re: Gifts for new chapters?

I know, pink roses are nice, but I'd like to do something more lasting. (And I'm not a zillionaire, so the grand gesture of buying a house is right out!)

I was thinking of the following sorts of things. Please let me know if you have any ideas or if any of these aren't so good:

-donation to the corporation board
-engraved silver items for rush/decoration/etc.
-special badgefor the president
-small items for each member

thanks!
I would recommend:

- special badge for chapter president
- gavel for chapter president
(the above 2 will belong to chapter and be passed to each successor)
- ritual items (will very from glo to glo, but stuff like candleholders, ceremonial robes, table clothes, etc. as well as something to hold them in)
- banner (most orgs have these, but are a bit pricy)
- keepsake item for new (re-)established chapter, such as glassware or the like.
