Sigma Rho Chi gifts

That's such a great idea!

They didn't do that at my school. They didn't even do a rho chi revealing; I didn't find out my PX's affiliation until I bumped into her wearing letters a few days after the end of rush.

You probably don't have to do anything too elaborate. Ask your sisters what types of gifts are usually given. Maybe you can include a note that says, "Welcome back, we missed you!" And definitely, something with letters on it.

Sidebar: Do PXs really have to take their sorority stickers off their cars?! When I was a PX, I didn't own a car, nor did any of my fellow PXs, so it was a non-issue. Removing a sticker from a car can't be fun or easy... then again, it would be a dead giveaway.

At my school, each PX usually gets some balloons or flowers from their Big or Little Sis on Bid Night when they finally return to their sorority.

A fun thing to do would be to have the chapter work together and make entries into a Recruitment Week Journal, then give it to the sister when they come back to the chapter. That way they can read up on what happened in the house during Work Week and Recruitment Week and feel like a part of things.

I have one of the traditional long stickers with the name spelled out, and I've transferred that thing to 2 new cars. They're not hard to get off...although if it had to be off your car for awhile, it might be hard to get back on.

I actually have to do the same this recruitment period for one of my sisters. Her little isn't going to be attending bid day so myself and one of my other sisters are running for her. We plan on getting balloons definately. My other sister is painting a wooden "C" (for the rho chi's first name) and I'm decorating/painting a wooden star wand and we'll prob get her one more thing. I really like the idea of getting a little box or something and filling it with candy. We're gonna put all this in a little gift bag and give it to her when we run down the aisle of our auditorium to welcome her back!
