How Many Buttons?

[Mike Schreiber]

Yes, 500 seems to be the general number, I have no clue how many we took last year, but we MADE them all by hand...so to me it seems like thousands, we had a whole jar of them left afterwards though.

Good point on personalized/team buttons Protronie, It's great fun to have a unique button, different than anyone elses, and maybe (if you can make them and aren't ordering them) you would want to include a couple "Thank You" buttons for judges or refs or even your mentors, basically anyone you'd want to thank.

Things other than buttons are great though! I know everyone always loves Team 27's blinky lights, our team had a LOT of fun with the frisbees in Atlanta Dog tags were a big hit too, and I know the stuffed martians were fun to have.

Anything that makes your team stand out and be remembered is great for competitions.
