    trophies

    We kept the ones that meant the most, the rest were melted down. They make fine costume jewelry! LOL

    Special Olympics!

    The Special Olympic folks really can use them. Only the name plates need changed and sometimes they can get those engraved and donated.

    Arrange them by years, make a card with type large enough to see the year and/or other information you'd like to remember and take a few pictures of them. Get as much detail in the picture as possible. With those digital picture frames you could even do individual shots and display them that way. (Wonder if any of those have sound capability?) Then keep the actual trophies you want and donate the rest.

    If marlin is going to be in the picture, you may also want to include a warning label!

    I made a scrapbook with pictures and plates by years, except for two state MVPs and a world series all tournament. Dumped the statues.
