Sisters and Brothers,

On Saturday, June 14, 2025, System Council U8 hosted and conducted an IBEW Shop Steward Training Class. We had 15 members from across the 5 locals attend and participate. I wish to thank and congratulate those 15 individuals for giving up an entire Saturday to receive the training and I have no doubt they will serve the Local, the Council, and the Brotherhood proudly.

A very special thank you to IBEW Rep Rebecca Axford, IBEW Rep Ed Mobsby, and Local 433 Officer Spring Hyche, for also giving up their Saturday to conduct and assist with this most important training.

Thank you, and please continue working safely.

Fraternally yours,

Phil
