Super Volunteer
If you've attended a FMR event, chances are you've worked alongside a Super Volunteer! Super Volunteers can be easily identified by the crest upon their shirt (see photo, above).
What does a Super Volunteer do?
A Super Volunteer attends four (or more) volunteer events over the course of a year – or completes their pledge to pull garlic mustard, or volunteers for 20 or more hours in other ways.
