SWFL UAW Retiree Meeting Planned
For December 9, 2025 at 11:00 AM
Merry Christmas!
We hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving! Now on to Christmas! Please stay safe while traveling, shopping, and enjoying parties.
We will not have any speakers at our December meeting as this is our annual Christmas party! Just a reminder, if you didn't purchase a ticket yet, you will not be able to purchase a ticket the day of the meeting! The deadline was Tuesday, November 11, 2025.
Cindy is still collecting email addresses and information. It is a time consuming job recreating these lists, but she appreciates everyone who has cooperated and sent the information to her either by email or by filling out the sheets here at the meetings.
Mark Dowell will be our featured speaker at our January meeting. We are hoping to get the representative from Optum RX here in January. She will be able to answer all your questions regarding the new RX cards and features.
We would like to thank everyone for their generous monetary gifts and canned goods for Harry Chapin Food Bank this year! Let's keep it up!
Again, we look forward to seeing everyone at the December Christmas meeting! Be careful out there!
