Fun gift for a baseball coach’s 65th birthday
When varsity baseball coach Christopher Hughes said goodbye to his seniors at his teams end of year award ceremony, it also happened to be his 65th birthday. On that memorable day, he received a fun 65th birthday group present that was far more personal than any baseball plaque his players or fellow coaches could ever give him. He received a special CD filled with the voices of his colleagues, his graduating players, and their parents, expressing their thanks and warm wishes. The recordings ranged from funny to sentimental, and demonstrated to him how much he had meant to his team.
“I go out there and urge my players to give it their all every day. I’ve always focused on the players, and when they gave me this gift it made it clear how much my coaching meant to them personally”.
The players and their parents wanted to give the coach a thoughtful present that was very personal. But, with hectic schedules, the players and their parents knew that the group gift would have to be easy for everyone to contribute to.
The Keepsake CD the coach received is called LifeOnRecord.
Team mom, Stacy Mobley, got the idea when her husband gave her a LifeOnRecord CD as a memorable birthday gift.
The process is simple: friends and family call a toll-free number and are directed to record a favorite memory, wish, or story. Theres no limit on the number of callers that can phone-in or on the total number of recordings you receive. The recordings can be downloaded for free using iTunes so that you can make your own CD, or LifeOnRecord can create a keepsake CD with a personalized label and metal case. An unlimited plan with free download capability into iTunes costs $49.99, or an unlimited plan with a keepsake CD costs $74.98.
It is a unique, affordable service that allows you to create a highly personal gift with ease.
“My players mean the world to me, and this is the perfect way for me to remember them and their impact after my coaching days are over. The mom who organized and put this together is my hero”.
If you’d like to be a hero to your loved one, you can purchase LifeOnRecord and give them a nostalgic birthday.
