I keep my 30 medals in a multiple display cases. They go by order of earliest invitational to regionals and in the center bottom go my state medals. Lower area is dedicated to the award paper that the district gives me. If you want I can post a pic of it but it's quite organized. Also makes for nice decoration if your parents are decoration freaks. (Like mine are. >_>)

I have them thrown into a drawer. With a piece of tape on the back of the metal part I have labeled event and comp. I used to have them organized by comp/year but not enough space and I feel like tape is simpler. I also used to label the lanyard with sharpie but I stopped last year cause its permanent and also it fades somewhat.

Even if your keeping track of everything, getting medals that look the exact same at the same compitition is really irritating. (Unless their firsts ofc)
