The regionals are NOT the playa and you don't really need to bring gifts. Well, even on the playa, you don't need to give out gifts. May I suggest that you wear your finest playa wear and bring a fun and open attitude and you should be just fine.
If this is actually happening on Halloween, then bring some Zagnuts. Everyone loves Zagnuts! :D

Everyone loves stickers, patches, pins, and some even like homemade necklaces. I use the ones I don't wear to adorn my houseplant stand.

How about candy for real. Bring few bags of candy to share. It's quick, cheap and easy (like me) and it's a nice way to share something.

Temporary tattoos... fun and relatively cheap in bulk...like ~$80-100 for 1000 custom temp tattoos where you supply the image, logo, or text. A google search for temporary tattoos will provide many options.

Yeah, stickers and pins. I use pictures I take at the Burn to make pins that I give away on the playa, at various gatherings and to people I meet who I think would enjoy them. It's just schwag, no big deal, but I like to make it and give it away, too. I use Zazzle: wait for a deal/coupon. Long live schwag.
