STAR Of Phoenix - Tin STAR

 

The purpose of “Tin Star” is to allow STAR Touring to identify a team of volunteers in time of need. If an accident or emergency occurs, or a member is in need of assistance (bike break down, stranded etc. or any other situation where help is needed), the “Tin Star” member in the group could be called on to lend a hand and/or to take control of the situation, until the local emergency services arrive. We thank all of the members listed here who have stepped forward and volunteered to help in the time of need.

To help identify which of our members have this special training, and have volunteered to be of assistance, we have developed a special pin, the “Tin Star.” The Tin Star readily identifies which of our members have volunteered to help when needed, and are qualified as one of the following: Physician, Nurse, Police Officer, Fire Fighter, Paramedic, Emergency Medical Technician, Search & Rescue or other special emergency training.

The basic requirements for those interested in the Tin Star program is to be trained in first aid with the American Red Cross Emergency Response Course #3620 or it’s evaluated equivalent.
