☀️🎉 WHAT A GREAT DAY WITH OUR LOCAL 480 FAMILY! 🎉☀️

A huge THANK YOU to everyone who came out for our Members Summer Picnic! It was wonderful to spend the day together, catch up with old friends, meet some new faces, and enjoy some well-deserved time together outside of work. But most importantly Congratulations to all the members who received pins and celebrated 10,20, and 30 year milestones.

Events like this are a great reminder that Local 480 is about more than the work we do — it’s about the people, the friendships, and the community we’ve built together. ❤️

📸 And, of course, we took LOTS of pictures!

There were too many great moments to fit into just one post, so these are the highlights.

Thank you again to everyone who joined us and helped make the day such a great one. We hope you enjoy the photos! 🎉📸
