Dear Brothers and Sisters:

We are changing the IATSE Local B4 General Membership Meeting to Monday, August 3, 2015.  This way all of our members will be able to attend.

I would strongly recommend joining us at this meeting.  We may be a small union, but we need to be an organized one.  All of our members pulling together will make this a great and strong union.

Benefits of attending a Union Meeting are:

•           Builds Solidarity among members.

•           Face-to-face meetings contribute much in  strengthening the bond among union members.

•           Some individuals have brilliant ideas, attending a meeting is the best place for those

            ideas to be heard.

•           Problems at the theaters can be brought before the membership to help get resolution.

•           When we are working at the theaters, we can get so busy, we don’t have a chance

            to “catch up”, and attending meetings is a great place for team

            building and/or socializing.

•           Our By-Laws state in Article 11, Section 2…”educating its membership”.  Since 2009,

            this local has endeavored to educate our membership in Unionism.  These lessons are

            on our website for your review.  There is always something to learn and you can get

            this information at our Union meetings. 

If you are not on the IATSE Local B4 website, members can join at: www.iatselocalb4.org.
