Off Season Event Passport Stamps

[rspurlin]

The passports were started last year. They were given to long time volunteers as a way to recognize those who return event after event and year after year. I'm not sure how they selected who got hem, but a couple of events or the same event for a couple of years probably isn't going to do it. The idea was that they would be used as the volunteers ID badge in place of the standard one, allowing everyone to notice the long service of these individuals. As they now use the bar code printed on the lower half of the standard badge to check you in each morning and track meals, it isn't all that practical. But that doesn't mean I'm giving up mine.

The stamp is relatively simple and much the same as a postmark used to cancel a stamped letter.
