Saturday marks one of the biggest fundraisers of the year for breast Cancer research as thousands of people will fill Woodward Ave for the Detroit Race for the Cure. This event is amazing to see and has long been supported by our Local 245 Woman's Committee. Additionally this year, beacuse of the genrosity of the bowlers at the Local 245 1rst annual Strike A Cure Fundraiser event we were able to donate the money to Race for the Cure making our event a sponsor of the Detroit Race for the Cure. Monday June 1, 2009 is a statewide lobby day in Lansing to support American Manufacturing. Many different unions, elected officials and residents took part in the bus tour a few weeks ago that stopped in Dearborn, Hamtramack, Sterling Heights and Pontiac. This is the final stop for this tour right now and the rally will begin at noon on the steps of the Capital in Lansing. It is my hope that a Rally at the United States Capital occurs later in the year! All are welcome to attend.
