While cleaning my apartment, I came across a medal that I find every few years and otherwise mostly forget.

When I was in sixth grade, I was in little league. At the end of the year, everyone on the team got a medal with a nice picture of someone up at bat on the front:

medal back: HOLLAND 1984 JACOB HALER

Getting this medal was a great honor.
