Technical Difficulties

While attempting to update our web page I deleted it by mistake, my bad! The Computer guys are attempting to fix it. Sorry for any inconvenience.
As you can see the blog is still up and running.

Retreat contract signed

The new Retreat contract was signed on Monday, April 7. We are waiting to get the copies back from the printer. As soon as we receive them, we will distribute them to all our members. Stay tuned...
The contract is on the "S" drive if you have access to the retreat computers.

Why a Union


Someone asked me the other day why have a union? Most people don't remember the days when you started work at 10 or 11 years old and worked in horrible conditions!
Job security, livable wages, health care and safe working conditions were all brought to you by UNIONS.
