Organizing Steward Steven Marcotte was honored at Advisory Council on April 24 for his award-winning photograph of fellow IBEW 1245 Organizing Stewards, Walter Carmier of Frontier and Pam Pendleton of PG&E.
Marcotte’s photo was singled out this year for the “Editor’s Choice” award in the IBEW photo competition covering all of the U.S. and Canada. His photo captured Carmier and Pendleton — who are both military vets — in a joyful moment during the Veterans Day parade in Sacramento last year. At the Advisory Council meeting, Marcotte said any honor associated with the photo should go to Carmier and Pendleton’s work on behalf of veterans.
Business Manager Tom Dalzell presented framed copies of the award-winning photo to all three members.
