Retired Brother George East is in the battle of his life.  George has been diagnosed with Leukemia.  George needs to spend all of his time and effort on fighting a very ugly disease, so his family and friends have set up a Benefit for George to help pay for everything that his insurance may not cover.  We all know that gas, needed to get George to his treatment, is not cheap and when you have to have treatment every day, that can be a very large cost.  Please come out and support a Brother who needs a little help.  The George East Benefit, Battle Against Leukemia, will be this Saturday, May 19, 2012, at the Mt. Airy Chapter IWLA Gun Club.  The club is located at 6642 Woodvelle Road, Mt. Airy, MD 21771.  The Benefit starts at 12:00 noon and cost $20.00 per person.  There will be Trap Shooting, Still Target, Pistol Competition, Live Music, and great food (pork and beef), as well as ice cold Spirits. 

Come out and get involved in a little competition while helping a good cause.

For further information or if you have any questions, call Rob East 443-506-9176.  If you can not make the Benefit, but would like to help George out, give Rob a call and find out how you can make a monetary donation.

Keep up the good fight George and all your brothers and sisters here at Local #10 will keep you in their prayers.

Local #10 and all its members have received an invitation from our brothers and sisters at Local #400, United Food and Commercial Workers, to attend their celebration parade on Thursday May 31, 2012.  President Thomas P.

I have added Photo Gallery pictures taken by Cale Fuller at the two practice sessions for the Annual Dale Dotson Sport Clay Shoot to be held on May 20, 2012 at 10:00 am.  We have some fine shooters among us here at Local #10.  There was a great turnout for both practice sessions and I think everyone is ready for the actual shoot.  If you would like to join the group, please contact Cale Fuller to sign up.  Local #26 has some really good shooters, so Local #10 needs all the "good guns" we can get.  If anyone sees Ralph Wellens (daddy Wellens) you might want to ask him if he will be there.  I hear he is REALLY GOOD.  I hope everyone has a great time and I hope to see that trophy sitting in the Local #10 Union Hall the week following the shoot.

The shoot will be held at:  Prince George's Trap and Skeet Center 10400 Good Luck Road, Glenn Dale, MD 20769, Sunday May 20, 2012 at 10:00 am.
