One Hundredth Anniversary
IBEW LOCAL 488 CELEBRATES
100 YEARS OF SERVICE TO WESTERN CONNECTICUT
On October 19, 2013, IBEW Local 488 was please to celebrate our 100th anniversary. We were deeply honored that so many members and friends joined with us in sharing that special evening as they played an important role in making our Local Union a success.
Our nineteen charter members on April 1, 1913 would be extremely gratified to know how successfully their vision was carried out because of their efforts and the efforts of their successors.
Local 488 is most grateful to our past officers and members who have worked to insure our success while enduring the good times and hard times over the past 100 years setting in place the foundation of the evening’s celebration.
We also would like to give recognition to our contractors and the Connecticut Chapter N.E.C.A. We appreciate our strong labor-management relationship.
Thank you to our sister locals for employing our members in hard times and providing their members to us in good times.
We are also extremely grateful for the excellent relationships we have had with all of the local and state Building Trades Council Affiliates and look forward to continuing to working together for the benefit of our trade workers.
Our evening was a memorable occasion of brotherhood as we remembered our past and looked forward to serving Western Connecticut for another 100 years.
