Last year, 64 prizes were awarded, including several iPods, Wiis, power tools, bottles of wine, gift cards and the televisions sets.

All of the gifts are purchased from companies with whom Local 117 has a bargaining relationship.

“This is our way of showing our gratitude to our members for their extraordinary contribution to this Union,” said Secretary-Treasurer Tracey A. Thompson.

The hall’s main auditorium will be packed, so plan to arrive early.

At the meeting, your Local Union will be collecting non-perishable food items for local Food Banks to help families in need, so be sure to bring something to fill up the boxes on display in the front lobby. For more info., talk to your Business Representative.
