L.U. 51 (catv,lctt,o,ptc,rtb,t,u&uow), SPRINGFIELD, IL — In 2002, we started our annual scholarship golf outing, which has provided more than 150 college scholarships to many of our members and their families. This year, we awarded 14 scholarships to the following people: Aden Armstrong, Eden Baumgardner, Rylee Bunn, Haley Carlton, Emily Copples, Jaden Corley, Gabriel Drake, Jack Evans, Lauren Evans, Garrett King, Nic Olson, Adrien Ruiz, Emma Van Fossan and Kolby Weiss.
The winning golf team was Pat Coit, Blake Davis, Ryan Perry and Terry Starbody. Pat Coit also won closest to the pin on two holes. Aaron Cully secured the title for the longest drive, Tyler Tester had the longest putt, and Chris Hammock won the putting contest. The last-place team had Jason Brown, Travis Crocks, Braxton Ladew and Nate Selvaggio bringing home trophies.
As Election Day looms, it is crucial to back Illinois candidates who will champion and defend workers’ rights. When you cast your vote for president, remember who played a critical role in investing in good-paying union jobs and unwaveringly supports labor unions and working people.
Be safe. Attend your union meetings — this is where it all begins.
