This is just a heads up — we have some big decisions coming up this fall. The decisions I’m referring to are this year’s Local 384 Executive Board elections.
It’s important for each member of Local 384 to pay attention (or start paying attention) to the representation they receive. Whether you’re happy or miserable about the representation you receive, this is your clearest opportunity to directly impact the representation you receive in the future. Whether your role is as a potential candidate, helping someone you support campaign for office or just casting a vote (and believe me, that’s as important as any of the others), your participation is vital to the future of this union.
Just something to keep in mind as we all get a little closer to the fall.

Those of us in the Philadelphia and vicinity Teamsters Health and Welfare Fund recently received letters from the fund informing us that the local fund is “seriously endangered.”
This past Sunday at the general membership meeting, President Bonaduce read a letter from Local 107 President and International Vice President Bill Hamilton regarding our health and welfare fund. It was offered as a way of putting the news about our fund into perspective. In short, it spells out how we stack up against similar funds around the country, and it dispels some of the misinformation that may be out there right now. If you want to read the letter in its original form, you can download it here in PDF format.

I’d like to announce that the results of the 2010 Local 384 Member Representation Survey are now available. To view them, please click here.
It was especially good to hear from the folks who took the time to offer comments in the survey form. Though most of you didn’t leave comments, you’re still more than welcome to offer some ideas if you have thoughts on the survey, or ideas on how to improve our Union.
