Paddles -- does your org give them as gifts to bigs/littles, etc

[GeekyPenguin]

My chapter of Gamma Phi Beta has made paddles since our charter class...they hang on the wall of our living room, and they aren't used for actual paddling at all, which would be hard to do anyways, as most of them are shaped as a Gammie Bug, crescent moon, pink carnation, etc... One paddle hangs in the house, and each member of the class gets her own paddle as well - the night we present them to the house, all of the current actives sign them.
