Bill Ives has amassed a personal collection of more than 120 different pins that he wears on his old corps baseball cap. With a wide variety of junior and senior corps featured, Ives has a large number of current and former corps represented.

When asked if he has any advice for those looking to start a pin collection, Ives said, "It helps support the corps and anyway you can help support the corps, that is what you should do."
