UAW SWFL Retiree Council Meeting Planned For April 14, 2026
Happy Easter!
We hope everyone had a very blessed and wonderful Easter!
At our April meeting, The Community Fellowship of Schools will have children here to run a small portion of our meeting. They also have a small presentation that they will put on for the membership. Let's try and have as many members here as possible. It will give them great joy to see so many members willing to listen and enjoy what they have to say, while also showing support for them.
Joe would like to remind everyone about the food drive for the Harry Chapin Food Bank. This will be an ongoing effort through the month of May. He would like everyone to please bring any canned goods or non-perishable foods to our meetings for these months.
Important! If you have any questions regarding any health bills you may have, i.e. medical, dental, optical, etc., please plan to arrive at least 45 minutes before the meeting so that you can meet with either Joe, Jim or Cindy. Remember to bring all pertinent documents or information with you. We will do our best to address the issues prior to the start of the meeting.
Next month will be our last meeting of the season. We will have our end of season Pizza Party after the meeting.
We hope to see everyone at the meeting!
