🎣🌭🍦 What a day! Thank you to everyone who came out for our annual LIUNA Family FunRaiser — check out the album below for all the smiles, sunshine, and good times!

This year's picnic brought together over 1,000 attendees from our LIUNA families and signatory contractor partners for a day of food, fishing, and fun for the whole family.

Here's how the day added up:
🐟 430 kids (13 & under) went fishing
🌭 2,000 hot dogs grilled up and served
🍦 886 ice cream treats handed out

And beyond the fun, this event raised over $30k for Ronald McDonald House Charities, Upper Midwest and $15k for the Laborers Charitable Foundation — bringing our all-time total to over $585,000 raised since this tradition began!

None of this happens without our members, families, and contractor partners who show up year after year to make it special. Thank you for being part of the LIUNA family. 🧡

🧡 Family helping family — that's what we are in the business of doing.

Meet Jenn, a proud member of LIUNA Local 563, who shared her family's story of how Ronald McDonald House Charities, Upper Midwest supported them when her grandson was born and needed NICU care. Stories like Jenn's are exactly why LIUNA MNND and our incredible signatory contractor partners show up year after year for this cause.

A few weeks ago, we hosted our annual LIUNA Family FunRaiser, and thanks to this community, we raised over $30,000 for Ronald McDonald House Charities, Upper Midwest and $15,000 for the Laborers Charitable Foundation! 🙌

These organizations step up for our LIUNA families and our broader community during some of life's hardest moments — and we're honored to stand behind them.

To date, this annual gathering has raised over $585,000 — proof of what we can do when we come together. 🧡

Thank you to everyone who showed up, gave generously, and made this year another one for the books. ⚡️

Joel is celebrating 35 years of service with LIUNA!

After a successful career as a steward at a large nuclear plant in Red Wing, MN, Joel joined Local 563 as a Business Agent and has grown into President and Business Manager of LIUNA MN-ND.

His colleagues describe him as calm, steady, and someone who genuinely listens.

Beyond leading our union, he is a strong advocate for mental health, working to make sure every Laborer knows it's okay to ask for support.

Nominated multiple times for his leadership and service, Laborers describe him as a trusted leader who's always thinking about what's best for the members.

Congratulations on 35 incredible years, Joel!

Thank you for everything you've built with us. 🎉

James K. says being a union Laborer gave him a new appreciation for the hard work of construction, which often goes unnoticed.

From breaking ground on the Lakeview Hospital project in Stillwater, MN, to watching it become a structure that’ll serve the community for years to come, it’s a reminder of the impact Laborers leave behind when a project is done.

19 years in, that sense of pride he feels in his projects has only gotten stronger. 💪
