Thank you to Robin Drace for your continued efforts.

She has continued to be an exceptional leader in her efforts to support our troops . She has been giving care packages to our military men and woman across seas to the tune of 3000 packages . Last night Steve Walter , retired Army Captain and one of robins first care package recipients was at our local union meeting to present her with the Jefferson Award she won through the International Steelworkers for her community service efforts.
