11 IBEW 1245 members and their families turned out in high spirits in Sacramento on Saturday, March 28 to march to commemorate the legacy of Cesar Chavez. They walked alongside the Grant High School drum line and several other unions and organizations.
Said 1245 member Nilda Garcia, “It was a beautiful Saturday morning, birds were chirping, pollen was heavy in the air, eyes itching, runny nose but it didn’t stop us from joining this great march!”
Some of the signs they carried read “#VIVA LA CAUSA”, “Proud IBEW 1245 Union Members”, and, perhaps the best of all, “I support my mom because of the Union, she can support me!”
IBEW 1245 members in attendance were Nilda Garcia, Julie Gonzalez, Eric Sunderland, Rene Cruz-Martinez, Candice Brace, Kevin Krummes, Ivan Pereda, Ricardo Hernandez, Steve Marcotte, Lupe Johnson and Treva Harrison.
