Roofers Local #49 will be donating to the Toys for Tots Foundations.

 We would like all our members to bring a toy to one of the next two Union meetings or the Christmas party or to work. One of the members that will be attending the Christmas party or the Union meeting(s) can bring it in for you. Please do not wrap the toy the Toys for Tots needs to know what the toy is. Thank you.

We will be raffling off 15 turkeys at the next two Union meetings. You must be present to win.

I know this winter is going to be hard for a lot of our members, please stay up with your Union dues. It is way easier to pay $20.00 a month then $130.00 if you were to get that far behind.

There will be food boxes for needing members at the Carpenters Food Bank if you are interested please call Conny and she will get you on the list. The members that are on the list will be able to pick up their food boxes here at our Union hall.


You must call the Union when you are laid off due to lack of work.
The Employment office has been very strict about filing. You must tell us the first day you filed for unemployment; we will place you on the Out-Of-Work-List and contact you when work is available.

 


There is going to be a very important decision at the Union meeting in December.

That decision is to calculate whether the Union has enough money to hire Darrel Hopkins SR as the new Business/Field Representative.
Darrel has been chosen by the Executive Board and then ratified by the members to fill this position. He will be the new hired help this Union has needed for a long time.

The only question is can we afford to hire on a new Representative at this time. The members will be handed statistics showing our financial position.
Please attend the December meeting it is extremely important that your voice and vote is counted in a decision of this magnitude.

This may be the last time I get the privilege to say I hope you have a great Thanksgiving and a Wonderful Christmas and the Happiest New Year!

Thank You,

Michael A. Thompson - Business Manager - Roofers Local 49
