This is your WSIU Union Almanac for Thursday March 23 brought to you by Liuna, the Laborers International Union of North America, the Laborers local 773 and by Ullico Insurance and Investments.

This week in labor history- 1962 – In an effort to block massive layoffs and end a strike, New York City moves to condemn and seize Fifth Avenue Coach, the largest privately-owned bus company in the world.

Locally, the hunt is on! The public is welcome to bring children to the 4th Annual Easter Egg Celebration on April 8th at 10am. The event will be at at Laborers’ Local 773 at 5102 Ed Smith Way in Marion. All families are welcomed to bring the kids to take part in the hunt for Easter Eggs.

If you or someone you know is interested in a career as a construction craft laborer with all the advantages of the Laborers’ Union, look for details on the website, www.local773.com
