Hello Brothers & Sisters-

There was a misprint in the Public Employee Press regarding this months Local 1508 meeting. It states the meeting is on 5/24 but it is actually on 5/17.

Dinner served at 6:00pm. Executive board meeting starts at 6:00pm, general membership meeting starts at 7:00pm.

The mailing card will have the correct date on it.

We wanted to take this time to welcome you to the new Local 1508 website. This site was created to provide our members with some basic and useful information on what is going on with the local, DC37 and AFSCME. It is a work in progress and this is all new to us so feel free to contact us with any ideas, information our items you feel should be added to this site. Just hit the Contact Us button on the bottom left and send us an e-mail with any thoughts or ideas.

Let us start by saying that this is a free site provided by DC37, AFSCME and Laborweb. The only cost involved in this whole project was to purchase a domain name (www.local1508.com) which makes the site easier to remember. That cost was less than $10 for 3 years of service. There is also a link to our site from the DC37 Website under About DC37, then Locals and then Local 1508.

We would like to thank the following people for all of their help in getting this site off the ground. Zita Allen, Molly Charboneau and Rudy Orozco of the DC37 Communications Division have been extremely helpful and patient in helping us get this site started. We cannot thank them enough for the help they have given us.

We would also like to thank AFSCME and Laborweb for providing the training and all of the templates and help needed in setting up this site. Without all of their assistance and help we would not have been able to even get this site off of the ground.

So please take a look around, enjoy the site and feel free to hit the Contact Us button on the left side to give us your input on what you feel we need to add to the site to maximize it's potential.
