My initial idea was to see what would happen if I I wore a nametag for a year (back then it was called The Nametag for a year Social Experiment.) It turned out that people loved the idea and started joining me. I realized we were on to something big and renamed it “The Nametag Project”. The project has been featured in the Boston Globe, Miami Herald on CBS, and recently on the Hallmark Channel’s cable show New Mornings http://www.newmornin… (scroll to the bottom to see the segment).
Now, half way through the year, the project has taken on a whole new life. I am proud and humbled that my employer, the Boston Police Department and City of Boston along with the Boston Red Sox have joined forces with me to bring the world the “National Night Out Nametag Day event at Fenway Park” on Sunday, July 15th when the Boston Red Sox play, and will beat, the Toronto Blue Jays. Again, to pull this off we need 106 of you to help by volunteering to pass out nametags from 11:00 AM to 2:30 PM on Sunday, July 15 on corners surrounding Fenway Park. After we’re done handing out nametags we will go to Game On ( 82 Lansdowne Street ) for a volunteer party and watch the game. To register please fill out this form http://www.swiftpage…
If you do choose to volunteer, you will be contacted by Allison Rogers, the event manager, who will confirm your registration and send you more information about the event, where to show up, what to wear, etc. If you do not want to or cannot volunteer please forward this email to everyone you know, post it to your blogs, website and share the love.
There’s a comma at the end of the link posted above for the project’s web page.
Name tags? Isn’t that the reason Giuliani got elected?
