Lighting up the Festival of Trees at the Interstate Center

 

  

Thanks to those who spent a Saturday volunteering their time and skills to provide lighting for the LeRoy American Legion.  It is a great example of how Union members are an asset to communities.  

 

 

 Congratulations to all of the members who received service pins in 2018!

 

 

 

Jason Bohm, Ken McLean, Matt Strupp, and Dennis Nolan are pictured with Tina Sipula.  The guys volunteered their time at the Clare House to add a few circuits on the upper floor for heating and cooling the rooms safely.
