New Members of Local 567

Posted February 21, 2025

We are proud to introduce 2 new indentured apprentices into our local union. Brother Kevin Palmer is a painting apprentice working for Wpi. He was a graduate of the IUPAT Job Core Program in Northern Nevada and chose to stay in the area to pursue a career pathway in the trade of painting. Brother Leonardo Guadarrama is a drywall finisher working for M&H Building Specialties. Both individuals exhibit strong work ethics and a willingness to learn. We are excited to watch each one grow within our organization and to become the future leaders of our industries.

Both attended February’s Membership meeting and took the oath of obligation to become fully vested in our union. It’s amazing to witness the new growth and the renewed interest of individuals wanting to join the trades unions.
