On October 17, 2017, District Council 6 hosted its Apprentice Graduation Dinner at the DC 6 offices in Strongsville, Ohio. This year, DC 6 had a total of 23 graduates! Director of Training for the FTI-Ohio Region George Boots welcomed the friends and families of our newest journeyworkers to the ceremony. DC 6 BM/ST and FTI-OR Co-chairman Jim Sherwood, and General President’s Representative Charlie Meadows both gave inspiring speeches to the audience before the presentation of diplomas.
The International Union of Painters and Allied Trades congratulates all of District Council 6’s newest journey workers, who have chosen an exciting and rewarding career in the finishing trades. We wish you continued success and the best of luck in your professional endeavors as skilled craftspeople in the IUPAT.
