A little over thirty members of the Shasta County General Unit met on January 17, 2012. Christine Perry discussed the Union sponsored “Employee Spotlight” program that recognizes members from all of our bargaining unit’s in the north state. Any member can be spotlighted for there services in the community or other talents that they may have. Christine also discussed our UPEC Scholarship program for the sons and daughters of our members who are graduating high school this year. The scholarship money is raised through an annual golf tournament sponsored by UPEC. None of the Union dues are used for this program. This years tournament is set for June 10, 2012 at Gold Hills Golf Club starting at 1:00 PM. Come out and help support our scholarship program.

We had discussion on the negotiation surveys that were returned and some members expressed an interest in attending the next negotiation training session. It is required that you attend a training prior to being placed on the negotiation team.

There will be an orientation meeting set for January 31, 2012 at 5:30 PM at the Union office to learn what the Union does for the employees that we represent. This meeting is open to any employee, of any organization, that is represented by UPEC. Please RSVP at 245 1890 if you plan on attending.

Our next General Unit member meeting is set for Wednesday February 15, 2012 starting at 5:30 PM so that Business Manager Chris Darker and Senior Labor Representative Steve Allen can attend.
