CLEVELAND, September 28 — BLET members making vacation plans for next year are encouraged to consider attending one of the BLET’s regional meetings in 2011.
These multi-day meetings combine the best of the Brotherhood — networking, education and training, and family fun — all in one place. The meetings provide an excellent opportunity for members to meet their elected leaders and to engage in face-to-face question and answer sessions. It also allows them to exchange ideas and information with their fellow BLET Brothers and Sisters.
