  10. itself can look back at a very active 2013 • EXARC shows our support for our members when needed by sending letters of reccommendation. Examples are the Marshall of the Swietokrzyskie Province (PL), AZH Hitzacker (DE) and RoterHahn (DE). This type of support is given several times a year, more often than previously – both because of the crisis and EXARCs growing reputation.
