Sheet Metal Workers Local 40 in Connecticut has made a point about being a partner in local communities.
On a Saturday in April, Local 40 volunteers helped spruce up the West Haven Little League baseball & softball fields at Morse Park. Local 40 helped clean, power wash, scrape and paint the fields in preparation for the new season.
“We’re in the neighborhood just like everyone else, and playing a positive role pays big dividends in the long term,” said Local 40 Business Manager Dave Roche.
“Giving back and leading in our local areas builds the good will that opens people’s hearts and minds to partnering with us in developing the kind of good-paying middle class jobs we’re trying to build. It’s a win-win for everyone.”
