They are certainly still very popular today.Larry Weaverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05760180653779593667noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2666450139846436889.post-63968879973197420942013-04-09T13:38:05.291-04:002013-04-09T13:38:05.291-04:00I first came across paper plate awards in the late...I first came across paper plate awards in the late 70's and 80's at a summer camp in Ontario called "Onondaga."<br /><br />Councillors would make up and give out awards to their campers before the big end-of-term banquet where the more formal awards were being given for the more notable achievements.<br /><br />Paper plate awards allowed _every_ camper to take home an award. Many of these were humorous and very much tongue-in-cheek. Some recognized other good work that campers did but were big enough or significant to be mentioned at the banquet.<br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05575392374324468983noreply@blogger.com
