Good morning, dear Group Leaders.

Peace and Service!

We are pleased to begin the selection process for the annual badge design and the front side
of the membership card for the 2025–2026 term. To this end, we are presenting two galleries with the images
showing the various proposals submitted to us
by the Karis Group and Branch Leaders who participated in the calls for submissions.

The selection process is as follows:

1. The Group Leader (GL) will view the image gallery with the proposals by clicking here.

The gallery has three view modes: carousel, thumbnail, and blog; and the option to view on a white or black background.

2. The GLeader of each gallery will select three proposals they deem most suitable to serve as the emblem we will wear on our uniforms for the upcoming 2026–2027 cycle and on our membership cards. To make this selection, the GLeader is free to consult with their group members by sharing the link above and seeking their input. Please note that the JG’s participation in selecting the three insignia is based on the Group registered for the current period and counts as a single vote.

3. Below the image they select, they may check the box, and in the corresponding section to the side, they will note: their preview, name, REGI number, their Group, and whether it is the first, second, or third proposal.

4. In order to meet the scheduled deadlines for selecting the winning proposal, voting will take place from Saturday, March 15, through Monday, March 18, of this year.

5. If more than one emblem receives the same number of votes, a runoff vote will be held among the finalist emblems.

6. The participating Kari whose proposal wins will not only have the honor of having their design worn by the Kari brotherhood on their uniforms for the following year but will also win free registration to a Kari Camp of their choice in their country at any time of the year.

7. Please report any issues with the website so they can be resolved as soon as possible. Likewise, if you have any questions or notice any errors in the process, please send a message to correct them via email to the CMRI’s temporary account: cmri@e-karis.org.

We appreciate your valuable participation and look forward to your selection.

Sincerely,

OMEK – Oficina Mundial de los Exploradores Karis.
