FROM DUSTIN REINSTEDLER

Dear Executive Board and COPE, at our board meeting last week we discussed this event.  AFL-CIO is also having a Labor Walk this day and time at IBEW.  I hope we make every attempt to bring our brothers and sisters out in honor of Augusta.  Please mark your calendars and share.  We hope to see you there.
