Violet,
Hmmmm let me think, When I was an Alpha, during initiation, we got potted violets, an Alphie, decorated picture frame, a decorated candle, and a poem in a picture frame (the poem has been pass down in our chapter). If your looking for a gift type, when we had a luncheon with the Alumni, they gave each of us an Alphie (like those beanie baby type). I thought it was a cute gift (at that time, I had not been in the chapter long, maybe a month and I thought it was real sweet of them) This time around they bought us a new set of candles used in initiation (which we needed). Maybe as a chapter as a whole, look into what they need, maybe new sheets, or whatever is used in initiation.
As for clothes, you can get screen printed shirts, when we did it one time, it was $8 per person (its prolly will be less, because we only order like 25-30 shirts). The shirts were navy blue short sleeved, with the crest in white on the back with Alpha Delta Pi written below the crest and on the front (on the boob area) it said Eta Mu chapter CSU Sacramento (on 2 lines).
I'll ask some of my sisters of they have any ideas. Hope this helps. Take care.
Pi love,
Ally
