The first BLET regional meeting following the COVID-19 pandemic held in Austin, TX from July 12-16 has concluded. It was great to gather with our fellow brothers and sisters from across the country and share ideas and goals for the future of our great Brotherhood!
It was great to see such a large turnout. As the meeting was held in the BLET UP Southern Region’s very own backyard, our committee was represented very well. We had a large contingency of Division Local Chairmen, Vice Local Chairmen, Secretary-Treasurers, Presidents, and Legislative Representatives in attendance. Throughout the week, we received compliments about the professionalism of our committee’s representatives, and it is greatly appreciated.
