A well respected restaurant in LaPlata, MD wants to help the Shaw family in this time of sorrow.  Foster's Grille will be having a fund raiser for CJ's family on Saturday, May 8, 2021, all day.  They will donate 20% of all proceeds to the family of Brother Shaw from that day.  So, that being said, if you find yourself hunger (and you know we are always hunger) on Saturday, May 8th and you are in the LaPlata, MD area, please stop in at Foster's Grille and have a bite to eat and help a Brothers family.  I have attached the flyer below that was sent to me.

*** It has been brought to our attention that there are two (2) Foster's Grilles in Southern Maryland.  This event will be held at the LaPlata, MD location: 6390 Crain Highway, #105, LaPlata, MD 20646.***

Brothers and Sisters,

We hope this e-mail finds you and your families Safe and Healthy.

As vaccines are becoming more and more available and we navigate through the ever changing Corona Virus world, we must continue to re-enforce Safety on the job.  While all of us are thinking about the Safety and Health of our families and friends, it is important to remind our Brothers and Sisters to focus on their Saety and the Safety of those working around them on the job.  In order to again recognize Workers Memorial Day and The National Day of Mourning on April 28th, the IUEC has prepared a Toll Free call-in number in order to hear a Safety Message from General President Christensen as well as links to a Life After Loss video and a video with Safety messages from several leaders of our industry including the IUEC, company presidents, employer safety directors and employer organizations supporting the Safety Stand Down.  The call in number and links to videos will become active on April 28th.  Go to https://www.iuec.org/index.php/safety-page/ and follow the IUEC Safety Stand Down 2021 link to view the videos, access the safety message at 1-888-618-0613 Toll Free for Canada and US and view information regarding the upcoming OSHA Safety Campaigns:

I received a text message from one of our Brothers who has set up a Go Fund Me for Brother Brandon Tate.  He was involved in a serious car accident and has been out of work since March 8th.  Brandons long time girlfriend, and partner, Kelsey, is due to have their first baby any day now.  With this being said, Brandon and Kelsey are both out of work and trying to live on sick and accident payments.  Brother Jurik has asked me to post the Go Fund Me link for anyone who would like to help a Brother.

Our thoughts and prayers go out to Brandon and Kelsey and we hope that they both are doing well.
