I've recently read that you shouldn't try to fill up those spaces with everything you ever got because some of them really don't mean anything. And if you DO put them in, I heard that Admissions Officers are somewhat peeved at you because they think you don't know the difference between a meaningful and meaningless award. They're popularly called "Filler Awards," I believe.
