Mother's Pinning

Hello, everyone.

In ZTA we have a Mother's Pin, but no actual ceremony or "ritual" to go with it. Do other GLO's have official ceremonies or do different chapters do their own thing? I would love some ideas to make it a little more special than, here's a pin mom.

Your input/experiences would be appreciated.

Thanks!

My chapter actually does have a ceremony to go with it, if you wanted I could get it from our current ritual chair (I just passed all my stuff on to her!) and PM it to you, or post it in the Zeta forum!

Hrrmm....toughy. My (local) sorority didn't have a mothers pin or ceremony to go with it. But I think having a mother's tea/brunch/day thing would be nice, and incorporate a pinning ceremony into that as well, so it isn't just the ceremony. Maybe incorporate some of the alumnae into the mix as well, to reinforce the idea of sisterhood extending outside of college, and reinforces the sorority as a supportive place for successful women.

*EDIT* never mind, someone beat me to it!

We wrote letters to our moms explaining why we love them and why we are glad to share a piece of Sigma Kappa with them, and read them aloud during our ceremony.
