Retirees

End of an Era
The January meeting saw the end of era in the concrete industry. 3 of 4 recent retirees from the concrete industry received their retirement watches from Business Agent Richard Laughton and Secretary-Treasurer David Laughton. The combined experience of the three men in attendance was almost an entire century. Dan Brown had 29 years, Conrad Therrien and Tom Grady both had 32 years, a fourth retiree, Jim McKenna was not able to attend. Their expertise will be great missed but we wish all of them a happy and lengthy retirement.

Thomas Wolf received his retirement watch at the December monthly meeting from Secretary-Treasurer David Laughton. Thomas retired after 30 years with numerous companies including ABF, Roadway and Preston Trucking. We hope he has a wonderful retirement.

In Memorium
To Our Deceased Brothers and Sisters
They Shall live Forever In Our Hearts
May The Peace And Understanding Of
The Great Master Above Abide With Us
Now And Forever More Amen

Local 633 Retirees Chapter

The Retirees Chapter of Local 633 would like to welcome you to our home page.
We are a group of over 350 retired Teamsters who, for more than twenty years have been actively involved in many causes. We participate in many activities alongside Local 633 members as well as several of our own gatherings.

Our board consists of a President, Vice-President, Secretary/ Treasurer, recording secretary and Three Trustees. We hold our meetings at the American Legion- Sweeney Post on Maple Street in Manchester.

Our members actively attend many organizing rallies, informational pickets, political campaigns and legislative events to help strengthen Teamster ideas and create a better life for all.

We also gather for several social functions. We host breakfasts' in March, June and September as well as a Christmas dinner at Sweeney Post. We also hold several bus trips a year, some of which have included Foxwoods, Mohegan Sun, a lobster bake in Boothbay Harbor and the Conway Scenic Railway as destinations.

Our chapter supports Camp Care free as a charity. Camp Care free is a two week summer camp in New Durham for diabetic children aged 8-15. This camp provides a fun and informative way to learn a healthy lifestyle. Many of our fundraising events go to support this camp; any and all donations are always gladly accepted.
