Dear Members of Teamsters Local 618,

          As we move forward in our organization the challenges for workers across the country, the state, including our own communities, continue with each passing month. The Local Union has been extremely busy in negotiations as well as grievance hearings, grievance panels and arbitrations. 

Members volunteered their weekends, took action, and sometimes braved the elements to fight for what really matters—rebuilding the middle class and raising standards for working families. However, our work is not done. Organizing is the backbone of our great Union and every member can be a organizer. When talking to the un-organized explain to them the benefits of becoming a member of the Teamsters Union.

This year marks the 82nd year that Local 618 has been affiliated with the Teamsters. Local 618 has a long and proud tradition of representing it's members and will continue to do so as the years move forward. 

As always if I can ever be of any assistence fel free to contact me at 314-426-4618 ext.15.

                           Fraternally,

                             Derek Kropp
