Regional Conference Draws Crowd

Each spring Region 4 kicks off its annual V-CAP dollar drive with a conference at our Pat Greathouse Education Center.

The annual conference features distinguished speakers and the introduction of the grand prize; a Big Three vehicle assembled here in Region 4.
This year’s conference was held May 5. A crowd of over 300 members from throughout the region heard from UAW Vice President Dick Shoemaker, retiring Region 4 Director Paul Korman, incoming Director Dennis Williams, and Illinois Rep. Jan Schakowsky, D-Ill.

Vice President Shoemaker reported on relations with the Big Three automakers, as well as our successes in last year’s elections.

Commenting on the presidential election, Shoemaker noted that the new administration is already at work undermining many the gains organized labor has made over the years.

Director Korman thanked everyone for the support and assistance he has received over the years as a regional servicing representative, assistant director and director. He summed up his long UAW career by saying, “It’s been a great ride.”
