Celebrate Labour Day!

Celebrate Labour Day!

With Labour Day 2010 just around the corner, the BC Federation of Labour will again be celebrating the day along with its members, friends and colleagues. All CUPE members and their families are invited to join the party – for the first time at Central Park in the wonderful city of Burnaby.

Please see the attached poster and map for details and feel free to forward to all your lists and contacts.
