Local Lodge 764 would like to establish a Membership Engagement Committee (MEC) to begin the process of outreach to all of our members.

This bulletin serves as the official call for any members who are interested in taking part in this membership engagement process and who are interested in volunteering to become a member of the MEC. If you, or any other member you know in your work location, is interested in volunteering to become part of the MEC outreach process, please submit an email application to chrish@iam764.ca.
