MEA’s 2010 General Membership Meeting

MEA’s Membership Committee put on another great General Membership Meeting on July 29th. Members enjoyed Abbey’s Barbeque, games and crafts for the children, a drawing with great prizes and heard from special guests MEA Legal Counsel Ann Smith and Councilmember Todd Gloria.

During the evening’s festivities, Ann Smith was recognized for her 25 years of service and dedication to MEA (more on page 5) and Councilmember Gloria praised members for their hard work and perseverance during a difficult financial time. MEA’s Secretary and Scholarship Committee Chair, Kyle Wiggins, also presented awards to the students receiving scholarships from MEA (more on page 7).

The occasion also provided members with an opportunity to ask questions and to speak directly with their union leadership. If you weren’t able to attend the event, but have questions for MEA or its leadership, please don’t hesitate to contact the office at (619) 264- 6632 and we’ll get you in touch with the correct person.

We hope that everyone enjoyed themselves at the General Membership Meeting and we look forward to planning the next event for our union family to get together!
