Phoenix pin in addition to badge?

I was just reading on the Christopher Newport ASA website that founding sisters wear a Phoenix pin with their badge to honor the work they put into the chapter. Is it the same as the new member pin? I'm assuming it is different. Anyone have a picture?

There was a pic on the burrpatt.com website, but it's since disappeared. It's not the new member pin, it's a gold pin that (who'd of guess it) looks like a Phoenix. Sheila might have a pic (Sheila has everything).

Information about the different pins should be in your new member materials.

The Phoenix recognition pin has nothing to do with the pledge/new member pin. It is often worn by colonizing members, sweethearts or advisors.

The Phoenix Rec pin and the Mother Patroness pin aren't in Advantage. Maybe they were in Encounter? She probably doesn't have any info about them...unless AIs get different packets then undergrads.

Not sure. I don't think they're used as much as they used to be. Burrpatt doesn't even sell them anymore (or maybe they do, but you have to special order them??).

I remember starting a thread awhile ago asking about the Mother Patroness and Phoenix pins, because I'd never seen them. I wish I could get my hands on an Encounter, to see what things used to be like, and what we're missing out of Advantage.
