Gifting Greek paddles is a great way to show our brotherhood or sisterhood.
Wooden paddles are a Greek tradition of welcoming new members to the house by giving them a paddle signed with pledge names as a sign sorority. Often traditionally associated with hazing, paddles mean much more than that. They stand for brotherhood or sisterhood. Paddles have always been an important tradition of the Greek culture and are a fun gift exchange. In the modern world paddles do not stand for hazing or cruelness but they are a genuine present from a big sister to the new sisters in the group pledging sorority.
You can now buy beautifully crafted Greek paddles with intricate designs online and get even the customized ones.
