MegaMeeting on Saturday, April 26

Set your calendars.

We will hold our biannual MegaMeeting on Saturday, April 26 beginning at 10 a.m.

We would love to see you in person at the Plumber & Pipefitters Local at 1250 Kinnear Road in Columbus, Ohio, 43212.

We listened to you and understand it is difficult for some members to travel so, as President Danny Musacchio promised in October, we are setting up satellite sites at training centers in Amherst, Batavia and West Virginia for you to take part in the MegaMeeting.

This is your union so please plan to be active in these twice-a-year meetings. There will be no chapter meetings in April.

The MegaMeeting will include a thorough review of Local 23’s finances, and a report from every Field Rep and organizer in our four states.

JATC administrators will report as well.

“You’ll get to hear from everyone who works for you,” said President Musacchio.

Drug Testing for New and Existing
North Shore Chapter Members

New and existing North Shore Chapter members who need to be drug tested should call Kelly Steiner at 216.398.0349.

You will need to provide your name, social security number, phone number and zip code to Kelly to schedule a test.

Kelly will then text you a QR code that contains the referral, and the name of the testing facility closest to your home.

If Kelly does not answer, leave her a message and she will return your call promptly.
