A group of IBEW members from Portsmouth, Ohio, Local 575 and Huntington, W.V., Local 317 beat the sun up on rainy Friday and drove five hours to Princeton to deliver much needed supplies to victims of the deadly Dec. 10 tornado that devastated the Caldwell County seat and other western Kentucky communities.
They jammed Local 575's four-wheel Electrical Training Academy trailer with much-needed supplies ranging from toilet paper and generators to pillows and blankets.
Chad Rennison, Paducah IBEW Local 816, Kentucky State AFL-CIO Secretary-Treasurer Jeff Wiggins and others met the Ohioans and West Virginians and helped them unload the trailer.
