Patrick ...

Depending on what you want to give for trophies, check with a local embroidery shop. We've given very nice polo shirts embroidered with the region logo. They should also have a good selection of items which can have the logo applied - directors chairs, bags, etc.

Think outside the typical stand-up trophies box.

Patrick,

I had the task of year-end trophies for the first time last year. I used the local trophy shop. For both ideas and the trophies. Ended up getting 8" silverplated plates and then typed up stuff in Word to fit on about 4" squares -- year, award, place, etc -- and had the trophy shop print them on brushed aluminum plates. Stuck those printed plates on bigger black aluminum plates (to make a border and give some depth) and then stuck the printed & black plates on the silver plates.

Printing on the aluminum plates was the trophy shop's idea and was quite a bit cheaper than the engraving would have been.

The project turned well and were reasonably priced. Budget permitting I could have gotten different size plates too.

If you're still interested in a picture, let me know...or if you get a really good idea, share that too. I'll need something for this year's stuff too.

Bob
