Each year, the IAM celebrates working men and women in the IAM calendar and each month features a different IAM workplace with photographs of members doing their jobs. The 2008 calendar will contain photos taken in the workplace by IAM members.
Two Eastern Territory Members were announced as winners recently. Brother Roger Buchop of Local 956 in Napoleon, OH won Honorable Mention for his photo of Group III Skilled Braze Mill Journeyperson Toni McBroom moving steel coil to a braze mill to be formed and brazed into a high-pressure brake line. That photo can be viewed here.
Brother Charles Fleegle,Jr., of Local 1400 in Manchester, PA also won the Honorable Mention award for his photo of Keith Krout machining a shaft for a turbine runner for Conowingo Hydro Dam. To view Brother Fleegle's photo, click here.
"Congratulations to these two members," said GVP Lynn D. Tucker, Jr." "Their participation in this contest helps to show the wide variety of jobs and skills of the members in the Eastern Territory and the IAM."
As always, a portion from the sales of the calendar will be donated to Guide Dogs of America. The IAM raised more than $24,000.00 for the GDA from last year’s calendar sales. Look for calendar order forms in the Fall 2007 IAM Journal or click here to download an individual order form.
