Local 455 is hosting the 2nd Annual weld competition this year on Thursday, June 18th! Tests will be held in a few different categories to not only sharpen the skills of our apprentice welders but also challenge them with MANY contractors sitting in to certify those that make it to the bend.

Following the competition, we will have the Annual Boilermaker Picnic on Saturday, June 20th following the 10AM Union Meeting. Picnic costs are $10 PER PERSON and can be paid at the hall.

‼APPRENTICES‼
You need to make sure that you are keeping up with logging your hours and if you are not working then you need to be COMPLETING YOUR ONLINE WORK. Also remember that 2 periods count towards 1 class. (Periods 1&2 count towards first year class and so on)

If you are scheduled for class this summer, ALL online work needs to be COMPLETED PRIOR to arrival of the first day of class.

We hope everyone is having a fun and safe summer; we hope to see everyone at the picnic on June 20th✌️
