The Union played the company today in a charity softball game to benefit members who are out on long term disability. The Union won the game by a score of 14-4 but in reality, everybody won. Local 424 would like to thank the company, AGL Resources/Elizabethtown Gas and their management for their participation in this event.
Special thanks to Kathleen Neiman, Staci Sujkowski, Chuck Krapf, and Tom DiFranco for their hard work in putting this together. Our thoughts and prayers are with all of our members who are out with a disability. We wish you all a speedy recovery and hope to see you soon.
