So I've managed to get myself made meet director for a USAS meet. In trying to make this interesting for the kids, I'd love ideas from forumites who swam age group or who have kids swimming these days --
What cool stuff should we get for the goodie bags?
What unique awards should we have for ...
Heat winners ... e.g., I remember going to a "top banana" meet in NC growing up where we got a banana for heat winner
High points ... e.g., the coolest high point award I got was a nice swim bag from the Rowdy Gaines Masters meet a couple of years ago
I'd love feasible ideas (e.g., we're on a budget and/or we'll beg local businesses for donations) that will ideally pump the kids up and make them want to come back year after year.

That's a good idea ... wonder if the kids will like rubber replicas of rattlesnakes to keep with our desert environment?:afraid:
They probably would!
The place to get any of that sort of stuff is U.S. Toy. They sell all the carnival supply type stuff. For example, here are four pages of various ducks, some that are about $0.50 apiece:

And if it's snakes you want, they have four pages of them:
