Badges We are contacting everyone to set dates for pictures
and badge distribution. We are also updating the database because emails, phone numbers have changed as well as a few
have moved away. This is an ongoing process, We are following the guidelines set and presented at a
State MRC conference in 2007. The badges have all of the required information and are very similar to other MRC badges
yet reflect our unit identity. We are also following the renewal guidelines that were set at the same time. We
will issue new badges every two years and we have aligned the renewal to coincide with your birthday. You will receive two
badges. When you respond to help at shelters, you may be asked to leave a picture ID with registration. The second badge
is for this purpose. The second badge will give the coordinators a picture ID in case they need to get in touch with you and
it will also help the coordinators confirm who has checked in and who has checked out. If you lose your badges
or wash and dry them with your socks, your record will have duplicates that we can issue although we have tried to make them
durable enough to make it through a wash and dry event. Any questions or concerns, please call 978-928-3834,
