Branch 43 Bulletin   June 25, 2010 STEWARDS----PLEASE READ AND POST The next Branch 43 Membership Meeting will be July 8th, 2010 at 7:30PM at Branch 43 headquarters.  All members are invited and encouraged to attend.  A special invitation is extended to ALL new members. SPECIAL DELEGATES MEETING: Just a reminder there will be a special delegates meeting for those delegates attending the National Convention in August.  The meeting will start promptly at 7:00 followed by the regular Branch meeting at 7:30.  We will also be serving food and refreshments commemorating Branch 43’s 120th birthday.  And finally, there will be no Officers or Branch meeting in the month of August due to the National Convention occurring during the same week of the regularly scheduled Branch meetings. However, during the week of the National Convention, a Branch officer will be on duty to handle any problems and the regular business hours of the Branch will remain the same. BRANCH 43 PICNIC RESERVATIONS: Plans are already underway for the 2010 Branch 43 picnic at Coney Island.  Mark your calendar for Monday September 6, 2010—LABOR DAY!   Last year we had over 300 people attend the picnic and we hope for a bigger crowd this year.  The cost is $5.00 per UNION family member which includes food, drinks, rides and Sunlight Pool passes provided by the Branch.  Get a group from your station and come out and enjoy a day of fun in the sun for the entire family.  Reservations MUST be received at the Branch office no later than August 13, 2010.  The registration form can be found in the current or upcoming editions of the News and Views or you can download a registration form at the Branch web site: Picnic/Picnic 2010 Registration.pdf WORK SMART AND PUT SAFETY FIRST: We are currently experiencing extreme weather conditions with severe storms and extreme temperatures pounding the Greater Cincinnati area.  YOU are the one who has to deal with these conditions while on the street so please take the necessary precautions to keep yourself safe.  If you find yourself in a situation where you will be unable to complete your assignment in the allotted time, you must notify your supervisor immediately and inform them of the particular circumstances involved.   Your safety comes first and you and only you determines what is safe or unsafe.  If you encounter any problems, notify your steward immediately or call the Union office.    Fraternally Jerry Giesting, President Branch 43, NALC
