Upcoming Events

Posted November 29, 2024

Holiday Greeting Brothers and Sisters,

I would first like to start out and thank the 767 Executive Board for all their hard work and devotion. At the last meeting a motion was made to buy food for families in need. On Monday we were able to feed 8, 767 families. The families each received a Thanksgiving meal for their family (turkey, ham potatoes, pasta milk, eggs, pie and more). If you are in need of food, please come to the Union Hall and fill out the form. Another resource we have is Operation Christmas Basket. If you would like to use this program, please call me before December 9th. The last thing that the Local will be doing is buying toys for 6 family’s children. We are hoping that during this upcoming year we can help more of our members and their families.

In February 2025, I would like to have a Retiree Luncheon. We have done this in the past but this time I would also like to have young members come as well. The reason I would like to do this is the Retirees have a history and story to tell. I would like younger members to hear the story of the Glazing Trade in the 60’s, 70’s and 80’s. The skyline you see now in Sacramento now is because of them and the stories are very motivating.

Several projects that are coming up in 2025 are UC Davis Medical Tower, Kaiser Railyards, Sacramento Airport Expansion, UC Davis Expansion, and UC Merced Expansion. 2025 looks a little show so please if you are not working call the Hall and get on the Out of Work List. Journey Workers please make sure all your certs are up to date for dispatch. Sadly, we lost Bill Kamp this year. If labor had a Superman his name would be Bill Kamp. Bill lived and breathed the Union Movement. Bill, I know you are up there Organizing, Card Checking the angels and passing out Red Suspenders! 

Have a great Holiday Season and be safe!

Safe Travels,
