we just have a most outstanding award for every class (9-12). then there are a few others that i can't remember right now. oh and there is one for both the bd's. the senoirs get a big frame and put pics of themselfs and a song or poem that says how they feel about their time in band or how they feel about leaving.

Every year, we have the Eternal Freshman Award, for the mos immature member in band. I think last year they tried to give it to this totally serious senior trumpet player, but it ended up going to a goof-off junior trombonist instead, who then quit band (but not because he got the award).
And Best Excuse for Being Late to Band, that's another one we have.

You also might try awards based on song titles from your show. For example...URI did a "Star Wars" show this year, so we had "Most Likely to Join the Dark Side." We did "The Incredibles," so we had "Mr. and Mrs. Incredible," which went to our BD and his wife. And, of course, the award I got..."Doesn't Get Around Much Anymore."

We always had awards for inside jokes and just random, crazy, funny stuff that the underclassmen did sometime in band. Also, some stuff like "Sweetheart Award," "Longest Hair Award," "I Stunk Up the Bathroom on the Band Trip Award," "Perfect Attendance" for the girl who's gone half the time (she was gone the day we did awards, lol) and mine from freshman year, "Watch Out, *BD's fiance-at-the-time, now wife*" b/c the seniors thought I had a crush on my BD.

We have a WTG! award. Though it may be "politically incorrect". It's called the Wow That's Gay award. It's typically a musical award that we give out, but I guess you can do for band.
Some examples of past winners in our spring musicals?
- Phil for peeing in the bathroom with his microphone on. - Chips for screaming DOG LICENSE one too many times. - Hope for her amazingly gay ringtone going off during intermission. (it was some spanish ringtone)
I know there were more, and it's so much fun to do too.

Let's see... we have the Forever Fish award. It goes to a freshman every 4 years. My boyfriend was named the Forever Fish his freshman year and he passed it on to a freshman his senior year last year. There is the Band Mommy award. It's for those people that are always prepared for anything. Just like mom. I got it last year. I always bring extra socks, saftey pins, girl things, rubber bands for hair, all sorts of stuff to band when we have games or marching contest. I have had people use them all too. Also I take care of all the freshmen. There are also "Most Spirit" awards. Funniest Hair. Funniest Moment. Stuff like that.

And Best Excuse for Being Late to Band, that's another one we have. Oh wow...we could do some awsome stuff with that one....but that involves stories, so another time. We do one called the Lurch Award. Its given to the student who is always there when needed by the BD, usually a manager. Its based on the butler on the Adams Familly, who always resonds to an order with "oookkkkaaaayyyyy"... *hums tune from The Adams Family*

most clueless, most unbandlike, best excuses, random award (either a random person of choice, someone who does random stuff, or put all the freshman names in a hat and draw, give them the award)
Some ideas.
