I am a newly initiated sister, so my pledge period ended just last week. I am not sure what kind of advice I can give, but I do know what worked in my Phi class.
Have you impressed upon them the importance of these activities? Have you let them know how incredibly happy and proud the sisters will be when they are exemplary in every way?
My Phi Mom (or new member educator) was thrilled to have us and be our role model throughout our Phi period. For the things that we were asked to do, i.e. make up a song to sing at semi-formal, we knew that the end result would be met with praise and appreciation from the sisters. That was motivation enough for us to want to know our creed, memorize the facts about our sorority, make paddles for our Bigs. Yeah, some of the things we did were a drain on our time and resources... but we were excited to do them because the entire chapter loved it.
Just a thought...
