We had a paddle exchange night as part of I-week where bigs and littles (my chapter called them mom and dot back in the day) exchange paddles. I have a paddle from my mom (big) and a paddle from my dot (little). My great grandma (great gran big) made me a mini paddle when I was pledging. I also have a paddle that my new members made for me when I was VPNME.

We also had a paddle exchange during I-Week. It used to be a Pillow/Paddle exchange. Traditionally, the Lil's gave the bigs paddles and the Bigs gave the lil's pillow. But in the past few years, people have steered away from pillows entirely. I got mine from my lil druing her I-week, and I have a pillow from my big sis from my own I-week.
Edited to Add: I'm still waiting on Paddle's from both of my Lil B's, but I'm not holding my breath!

okay, so it's aug. 1st and i still don't have mine done. i haven't even been able to get the stuff to make it. let alone find time to actually do it. i'm working about 10hrs a day most days and trying to spend time with my parents and my man. sort of sucks living in the same house as my father, but going for two whole days without seeing him b/c we are always missing each other.
but anyhow, i get paid this week and after i take care of my bills i'll try to get this paddle thing taken care of. i havent' forgotten, i've just been poor and busy. sorry!

Girl, I'm so in that same boat.. Mine's not finished yet either.  Who's in favor of pushing back the date (again)?

I think you girls should take as long as you need. I mean its not like you dont WANT to do it ... if that was the case you wouldnt have signed up. Im sure everyone will eventually get theirs done and send them out. SO basicly I dont think we really need a deadline ... when you can get them done, get them done ...
but then again others might not feel that way ... but thats my oppinion

I have to admit, time has been hard to find to make a paddle. But when I get back to school, I will be able to make one, esp. with all the greek shops around! To whoever is passing to me, I hate to be a pain, but my address is changing b/c I am going back to school. I will get it out to you in a few days!
