Ryan Dupree of Wartrace Regulators in Madison AL, submitted this button, which was designed for the SASS TN State Match 2014. This year's theme was based on the Fox TV show Firefly. Personalized buttons were given to each competitor that registered for the event. In addition to identifying each individual participant, there are multiple designs that are worn by workers, guests, VIPs, etc., for quick identification. Ryan noted that the buttons were a huge success, both tying the event theme together, as well as helping in overall event organization, logistics and execution.
