President Brian Clardy and Secretary/Treasurer Mike Powers spent some time with our Charleston Movie Industry members on the set of the Netflix show, "Outer Banks." They are currently working hard on episodes for Season 4! Local 509 members are also hard at work for the 4th Season of the HBO show, "Righteous Gemstones.
Teamsters Local Union 509 hosted a Union Stewards Training Seminar on Saturday August 11, 2018 with over one hundred Union Stewards in attendance. The Training Seminar was action packed as International Brotherhood of Teamsters Union Representative Myron Sharpe dazzled the crowd with an overview presentation of contracts and Union Stewards duties. President James Todd held several drawings to keep the crowd excited. The Union Stewards in attendance received union paraphernal, a great lunch and a great day of fellowship. The Local Union was absolutely pleased with the event and plans to have a Union Stewards Training Seminar annually. The Local Union will step up the training each year which will help the Local Union 509 Union Stewards to continue to grow. The Local Union salutes Secretary Treasurer Mike Powers who facilitated the entire event. Local Union 509 also salutes all the Union Stewards who gave up their Saturday to spend the day in training so that they have the proper tools to represent the membership.
