Please join us for the St. Patrick’s Day Parade Saturday, March 12. The meeting place is the public parking lot at 400 2nd street. Taking public transportation to this event is encouraged as the streets of San Francisco will most likely be pretty busy that day due to the street closures. This is a perfect event to get the Family involved (Please see below flyer for more details). Remember to qualify for the VAC banquet you must do at least 3 VAC’s throughout the year, (Even the Kids). Not all VAC’s allow children but parades do. The next one after St Paddy’s will be the Caesar Chaves Parade in May with the exact date to be determined soon. That’s TWO easy ones knocked out early in the year, with just one more needed to qualify!
The Drywall Finishers collective bargaining committee will be holding a contract negotiation meeting February 20th at Local 487’s local union hall located at 7111 Governors Circle in Sacramento at 11am. More meetings will be held at various locations up until the contract is ratified.
