L.U. 15 (u), DOWNERS GROVE, IL — On Oct. 1, our local hosted its inaugural charity golf outing at Ruffled Feathers Golf Club in Lemont, Ill. The event was a huge success. The chosen charity was Cal’s Angels, a nonprofit organization fighting pediatric cancer, granting wishes, funding research, and raising awareness for kids and their families battling cancer. Sponsorship donations were accepted, providing funds for food, drinks, raffles and silent auctions.
The day started at 7:30 a.m. with golfers arriving in front of the clubhouse and a shotgun start at 9 a.m. Golfing was over by 2 p.m., followed by dinner in the clubhouse.
Local 15 President Chris Riser thanked members for participating and supporting such a great cause. He expressed the importance of getting Local 15 members together to create camaraderie and a sense of union pride.
On Oct. 12, Cal’s Angels President Stacey Wahlberg and Development Coordinator Stacey Vessell came to the Local 15 office where they were presented a check for more than $35,000 from President Riser! A huge thank you to all of our members who participated in the outing!
John Richards, Bus. Rep.
