Ideas for swimming medals and ribbons

We did the same at a family reunion. I downloaded the Olympic theme song and the Star Spangled Banner and played them when we handed out the medals. We made up enough age groups and events so that each of them won one. We had soft ball throw, high jump, broad jump, running, etc. The medals were all from the NJ Senior Games and I just took the sticky event/time off the back. They were fairly large and on red-white and blue ribbons so you could put them around their necks. Parents didn't realize I'd won them all 'til later. Kids loved it. I don't swim as fast as I use to. The two medals I won last year at the senior Olympics in Tucson in the 50 and 100 yard breaststroke are cool.
