Business Manager Comments     

As summer is upon us and Memorial Day has passed, I would like to thank all our members that have served in the Armed Forces.  I know Memorial Day is about the fallen soldiers to which we are all eternally grateful, but times like this also make you appreciate all those that put it on the line every day protecting our country.  Thank you!!

​

Hopefully you have all had a chance to sign up for the Local 776 golf outing that will take place at Colonial Hills Country Club on June 11th.  The cost is $45 for non-members, $15 for members and FREE to retirees!  This includes a steak dinner and door prizes.  I hope to see everyone there!

​

I would like to personally thank every one of the members from Local 776 for electing me to represent you and Local 776 as your Business Manager/ Financial Secretary.  It is a huge honor to serve in this role and to be elected by your peers!  I strive to continue to make Local 776 better and stronger as each day passes.

​

Fraternally,

​

Brad P. Wendel

Business Manager/ Financial Secretary - Treasurer
