This year Miners Memorial at Cumberland is going to be a huge event for union members. It is unfortunate that we were unable to secure Miracle Beach for the annual family picnic and so in lieu of that, we are encouraging members and their families to attend the BBQ dinner and other festivities on Saturday June 23^rd.

Go to https://minersmemorial.ca/ to get a rundown of events. The best part is from 4:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. we will walk with the BCGEU RV in a procession that signifies the funeral procession of Ginger Goodwin, an activist who died for the union cause. Afterwards there is a BBQ with lots of sing-alongs! The Union is covering your donation to the BBQ which will be held at the Cumberland Village Park. Walk in the procession or watch, but all are welcome.

In solidarity
