I have yet to master trying to put in a photo with my post, but if you go to etsy and then search sorority paddle custom you'll see different examples and photos from various GLOs.
I personally don't have a paddle from my org but I love the creativity that people put into it.
When I pledged in 2007, my chapter used very decorated wooden arrows...maybe I can hunt down a picture. I made a bit of money on the side because my dad made a bunch of them We didn't have pledge class paddles past like 2001.
