Re: Buttons?
Yes, make up two designs if you can. One can be a general one with your team name and mascot or something like that. You can hand those out at fundraisers, cub scout demos, etc. Make another one that is specific to this year and you can hand those out at the competitions you attend. It's fun to come across one from previous years when you're cleaning out closets, etc.
RAGE made a "portable" button table that comes to competitions with us. That way, especially on Thursday, when teams have practice rounds, members of the team can make more if necessary.
Make sure you have a "quality control" procedure in place (ours involves dropping them onto the table to be sure they don't fall apart) and make sure that your team members are trained in button assembly or you will waste lots of materials on buttons that are not cut out properly, that are not assembled properly, etc. And who wants to waste money like that?
The square plastic bins with handles, like dog biscuits and kitty litter come in, are great for storing buttons in and carrying them with you to competitions.
