Eric Ostenburg is more than one of our foremen. He's family. Right now, Eric and his family are facing an incredibly difficult time, and we're asking our community to rally around them.

If you're able, please donate to their GoFundMe. If you can't give, sharing this post helps just as much. Every dollar and every share brings real relief to a family that has given so much to our team.

Thank you for standing with Eric. We're proud to have him on our team, and we're grateful for everyone who steps up to help.

Labor Day isn't just a day off. It's a reminder of why we organized in the first place. Fair wages, safe conditions, and a seat at the table. Proud to stand with union brothers and sisters everywhere. Happy Labor Day!

IBEW 659 was proud to sponsor the Myrtle Creek Rock Crawl 2026!

We teamed up with 63 off-road racers to help put smiles on the faces of local kids with 57 donated bikes, plus coloring books, stickers and race flags for the whole crowd. We were also able to honor 4 military veterans with ride-along experiences through the Fallen Outdoors Foundation.

We are honored and excited to invest in our community because giving back never goes out of style! 💪🚲
