Dec 2009 Vol. 12 No. 12

Support your Local, and win a truck!

Get behind the wheel… of a free F-150

Not the actual truck

Looking for a hard-working Ford F-150 with fewer than 50,000 miles on it? Attend eight union meetings this year at the same Local (check the schedule at right, and be sure to sign in at the meeting!), and you will be entered into the NCCRC’s truck raffle.

At their November meeting, the Regional Council Executive Committee approved a truck raffle for calendar year 2010. The existing rules remain the same, and the drawing will be held at the Regional Council meeting in January 2011.

Considering that fewer than 500 members qualified for the 2009 raffle, the odds are far better than many such events. Hopefully, more members will qualify in 2010. Even if the number doubles, your odds would still be better than 1 in 1,000. Maybe it’s time to attend more union meetings!

The ground rules are as follows:

1. The raffle is open to all members in good standing throughout the year except officers and employees of the NCCRC, local unions and affiliated entities (e.g. trust funds).
2. Members will earn one entry in the drawing by attending at least 8 union meetings at the same Local in calendar 2010 (limit is 1 meeting per month). All 8 meetings must be attended while qualifying under rule number 1, above. Limit 1 entry in the raffle per member.
3. Locals will be responsible for documenting which members qualify for the drawing under these rules, and will send the NCCRC Controller a list of such members after their last union meeting in December 2010.
4. The drawing will be held at the Regional Council delegate meeting in January 2011.
5. The truck will be an F-150 with no more than 50,000 miles at the time of the raffle. It will be given on an as-is basis and a 1099 will be issued to the winner, as required by law.
