DUE TO THE ONGOING PANDEMIC AND DIFFICULTY IN ORGANIZING GROUP EVENTS, THE 2021 AND 2022 HOLIDAY PARTIES HAVE BEEN CANCELLED
Months ago at a union meeting it was decided that it would probably be best to cancel again this year. This event requires lots of planning and financial spending. The members at the meeting decided it was not worth the risk of losing deposits if the need to cancel arose. With COVID on the increase again, it looks as though the right decision was made. We enjoy the company of our retirees at this party and would not want to put them at risk. Since this is the 2nd year with no functions, we are hopeful to possibly put something together this spring or summer for us all to be able to celebrate.
ALSO, FOR THOSE WONDERING -
We are fortunate to have a small fund that we can use to have events like picnics, parties, and attend ball games. This fund was a generous donation from a retiree. We are limited to what this money can be spent on, as per financial laws. When the union has an event, like the holiday party, the money comes from this fund. NOT ONE CENT OF YOUR UNION DUES ARE USED ON THESE EVENTS!
