I would like to thank all of the menbers of Local 1005 who spent there holiday weekend collecting money for MDA.  We were able to raise almost double the amount that we did last year in the amout of $3000 compared to the $1600 last year.  It takes commitment and dedication to do what you all did this year.  It was hot and windy all weekend and it did not stop you all for collecting. I also want to give a special thanks to the wives, girlfreinds, and kids that also came to help.  Iam very proud of the members of Local 1005 and a job well done.

Jerry E Thompson

President Local 1005
