Thanks for the ideas :)
We'll definately have the towels, nice ones too!
How about some of thees - all with the evemt logo on them:
Fleece sweater
Stickers, window decals, Temporaty tatoos, magnets
Ballcaps (the low profile ones)
Sun Visors
Keychain - maybe in a shape of a surfboard... one of thiose that serve as a bottle opener too, with the event logo
Patch with the event logo embroidered (like a participation patch people can sew on their parkas)
Swim caps
Mens and womens T-shirts and Polo Shirts
Tank tops
Shorts, boxer shorts
Shammy with the event logo
Photo frame
Water bottles
A coffee mug or a regular mug/glass
Stadium seat
On site embroidery with a licensed event logo, so you can put in on something you already have... or add your name to the event shirt or sweater or towel
Kids sizes t-shirts
Hawaiian shirts with the event logo/theme
Maybe see if some of our more famous swimmers could autograph a few pieces? Perhaps Brian Goodell can sell a few autographed copies of his book?
Personally I think a short meet and greet wih couple of our supersatrs might be very cool... What do you think?
I'll have to see if we can pull off something like that.
Wow - sounds like a Christmas of a meet with all these proposed "presents"! All great ideas. We did commemorative deck passes for our most recent zone meet ... laminated cards that had the meet logo graphics on them ... which went over pretty good. They weren't expensive to do either.
Lots of folks like medals - however, the plaque award if done well where you stick metal award bars on it for your events, is a nice commemortive item.
Also, speaking of Gary Hall, how about robes? He has been famous lately for his entering the pool deck in boxing robes, "ready for the sprint action".
A rash guard is a thin swimming top, usually UV rated, that protects from sunburn and is designed to be worn by surfers and body boarder's and prevents those indiviudals from getting rashes on their chests/nipples/bellies. Also worn under wetsuits to prevent chafing. Producers include Speedo, O'Neil, BodyGlove, Roxy (for women), and many others.

Connie,
I advise sticking with non-glass souveniers, being near a pool and all, don't wanna cut our precious bodies on broken glass. At least that was my suggestion for Stanford.

Good point!
We're most likely have souvenirs available for purchase on-line as well. Perhaps glass souvenirs, if any, could be available there so they're not near the pool.
Thanks for bringing that up.
