If you haven't heard yet, we have changed the location of our local lodge.
We're now located in the IUE-CWA Local 901 building at:
1427 Broadway Ave
Fort Wayne, IN 46802
We'd like to thank our union brothers and sisters of Local 901 for making
us feel so welcomed and for allowing us to rent a part of their building
to hold our union functions. They have gone above and beyond to work with
us and it is certainly appreciated. Please take a moment and thank Brent
Easton and his group when you get a chance.

Organizing Committee, if you're interested, please contact our Local Lodge
President, Lori Dekoninck.
