Child ID's at Harrison Library

HARRISON — Members of Crooked River Lodge #152 in Harrison will conduct a MECHIP (Masons of Maine Child Identification Program) workshop on Saturday, May 5 from 11 a.m.-1 p.m. at Harrison Village Library.

Maine Freemasons bring this program to communities throughout Maine with the hope that the packets assembled are never needed; however, should a child become missing, the materials collected (photo, fingerprints, etc.) may be given to law enforcement to aid in identification and recovery of the child.

The Maine Masons have held over 1200 MECHIP events, and provided identification packets to over 47,000 Maine children. MECHIP is a part of the International Masonichip Network, sponsored by the Conference of Grand Masters of Masons in North America.

This program is free and open to the public; for more information, please contact the library at 583-2970.
