“It’s critical that we unite. It’s important that we continue to fight to stick together, because it’s only together that we can accomplish the things that we need to accomplish for working people.”
-Yves Chery, LA County Deputy Probation Officer, LACERA Board Member
“We’re in tough economic times but it is critical to come together at events like 
the family picnic to remind us about our plan to get through these tough times.”
-Angela Portillo, Child Support Service specialist, Ventura County

“Its interesting to attend the SEIU 721 picnic and membership meeting because you can meet different people, to talk about jobs and issues that are common across the union.”
-Rick Gay, Riverside County, Accounting Technician I
During these tough times for members and their family and friends, a respite like a family picnic is greatly welcome! It not only allows us to socialize and forget the riggors of the daily grind but allows us to, as a community of members, family and friends, share the good and the bad; catch-up with important UNION BUSINESS and best of all, RELAX.
I really enjoyed the food and seeing old friends.
Thanks to the African American and Latino Committees the Staff and All Involved Members who made it so memorable. I am looking forward to the next BIG EVENT! Maybe at Christmas………?
