During a chapter meeting; each member writes their name on a piece of paper. You then pass the paper to 5 or 10 (depending on chapter size) other sisters. Each sister writes a positive aspect of that person BUT DON'T sign your name. When you get your piece of paper back; it has all these wonderful comments about you and just makes everyone feel wonderful. I remember one girl said I was the reason she pledged the sorority- it made my day!
Another thing is a Hootie Jar. During chapter you pass around the Hootie Jar and people put in comments that vary from "Congrats Jane for making Motar Board" to silly/funny ones if something crazy happened at a party over the weekend.
Both things really helped our chapter become closer! Hope they can help you too! Sue
