With the Labour Day weekend coming up, the United Steelworkers Local 6166 is holding an event to commemorate it.

Much like last year, it will be a drive-thru event to lower the risk of spreading COVID-19, as president Warren Luky explains.

“There will be a drive-thru for people to come and get some food, they can still get in on all the prizes and the draws. We will be drawing for kids prizes, a couple of bikes, a scooter, a freezer and other surprises. There will be a walk up component to the union hall so people aren’t left out if they don’t have vehicles. They can come and enjoy a burger, a hot dog and some other goodies we have to offer with a beverage. They can put their names down for the prize draw.”

This year’s Labour Day event will be on Monday at 19 Elizabeth Drive from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.

Listen to the full interview with Luky on Thompson Today at 12:40 and 5:10 this afternoon.
