Rochester, N.Y.-- On Thursday, November 5 at 5:30, CSEA Local 828 will be hosting a talk by Julie Schmidtke from The Next Generation United (NGU). NGU is an organization of labor enthusiasts who are dedicated to increasing the visibility of younger workers through education, engagement, and mobilization for social and economic justice.

The meeting will be held at the Liberty Lodge at Finn Park, 850 Maple Drive, in Webster, N.Y.

Besides our usual business meeting agenda, Schmidtke will speak to the need for the younger generation to take ownership of their workplace and get more involved with the labor movement in general. President Watts is asking Unit Presidents to invite some of the younger members who may be interested in learning more about what is happening locally on the labor front. Younger is described as 40 or younger.

Please check your mailboxes for a meeting announcement letter from President Watts dated October 16. It includes driving directions and other related information for the meeting.

Please contact Barbara no later than Monday, October 26 confirming your attendance. It's important that we get an accurate count of attendees so we can provide the necessary materials and food for the event.
