Oh, another suggestion I've seen going around GC- sister "postsecret". Each sister writes down a secret of her own, and puts it in a box. Each notecard is read aloud by a trust worthy individual who won't guess handwriting. I've always wanted to do it with my chapter.

We did something similar to what Smile_Awhile mentioned with the yarn, only we had strips of paper and made a paper chain and everyone said why they were a strong or weak link. That can be a tearjerker one though.

I like the idea of random groups or pairs getting together and maybe making a list of 5 things they all have in common (sorority and academic stuff excluded of course).

The contests can work like crazy or not - it depends on whether you have people who are incapable of doing something "just for fun" and worry more about winning than connecting. You know your chapter better than we do to answer that one.

I actually used this as the final activity during a recruitment workshop to try and get everyone to open up a little more, and to understand that everyone goes through their own personal struggles or has something goofy/embarrassing/funny to hide. I even wrote a secret of my own. I was amazed at some of the things girls wrote down. It was more eye-opening than I thought it would be, and I think everyone was a little more understanding of their sisters, and in turn, the PNMs during recruitment
