Brotherhood of Railroad Signalmen Local 130 Updated07/19/2008 The next meeting of the BRS Local 130 will be Friday October 10th at 7:00 PM. The meeting will be held at the Courtyard by Marriott in Elmhurst. The hotel is located just north of North Ave. on Rt. 83. The union sponsored event this year will be an evening at the races! Keep the evening of Friday September 26th free. Details will be sent out soon.
I found this on another local's website and I believe it applies here as well: Local Lodge meetings form the roots of our organization. From them come the views and desires of our members, which guide Local Lodge, General Committee, and Grand Lodge Officers in formulating policies for the betterment of working conditions. Further, all Local Lodges have their own problems, such as grievances and maintaining a strong attendance at meetings. Hardly an event can take place at a meeting that does not affect every member in the Local Lodge. Those who fail to attend not only run the danger of missing out on decisions directly affecting themselves, they also retard the broader aims of the organization to improve the working conditions of all members. Just as governments are strong in proportion to the interest and support of their peoples, so do labor organizations progress according to the will of their members to give all their support to the most important activity of their organization -- which is the Local Lodge meeting.
