I would like to thank some of our retired members. These guys spent their morning handing out donuts, juice, fruit, and coffee at the VA in Cincinnati. The Cincinnati Building Trades helps out once a month at the VA. Every month a different trade will volunteer to help and the Boilermakers donated their time this month. This group of men have been doing this for many years and are great representatives of Local 105.
