What is your thought on this?
Does your chapter make paddles?

Our chapter does not make paddles, but with our recent pledge class, the class presented their pledgemaster with a memento paddle at the end, and two littles who had the same big presented their big with a paddle.

What I have seen with some chapters:

Paddles will be presented by littles to their bigs as a memento after iniation.

Paddles will be presented by the pledge class to their pledgemaster as a memento after initiation.

Pledge class will create a paddle as a memento of their class.

Pledges must carry a paddle presented by their big with them at all times and use it to gather signatures.

Most seem to try to have it be a fun and valued symbol of their time as a pledge.

Hope this helps
