GLAZIER

November 13^th District Council 6 acknowledged National Apprenticeship Week at their Strongsville Union Hall. This event captured the attention of 143 attendees for various schools within the surrounding areas including; Cleveland Heights High School, Cuyahoga Valley Career Center, Polaris Career Center, Clearview Local Schools, Max Hayes, Warrensville Heights and Medina County Career Center. Throughout the day nineteen students completed our general application, of which included seven young woman who are seriously looking to join the IUPAT. DC 6 recruited the help of our current apprentices and staff to assist these students with hands on demonstrations to capture the feel of what our trades involve. Current apprentices inspired these students by telling their stories on why they joined the union and how it has changed their lives.

The IUPAT DC6 Young Lions Glaziers pulled together to give back to one of their own! Thank you to everyone who came out to Rookies Sports Bar & Grille to make our fundraiser for Kelly Decrane an overwhelming success! Together, we were able to inspire a fellow sister to FIGHT LIKE A GIRL, and pull together for a great cause.
