? VOLTA Groundbreaking at Clover Park Technical College? IBEW Local 483 was proud to attend the Pole Yard Groundbreaking Ceremony for the new VOLTA Line School location at Clover Park Technical College! This new training site will bring opportunities for future Lineworkers right here in our community. We're honored to celebrate the start of this project and its bright future.
Happy Lineman Appreciation Day! Today we honor the hardworking men and women who keep our power flowing — rain, shine, or storm. Linemen risk their lives to ensure our communities stay connected, and their dedication never goes unnoticed. From climbing poles to restoring power in the toughest conditions. THANK YOU for your service, your strength, and your sacrifice.
Thank you to everyone for your generous contributions to the peanut butter drive! Your donations enabled us to collect over 9,200 jars of peanut butter this year! You guys rock.
