Local 79 appreciates the tremendous sacrifices and contributions of its retired members. Their commitment and hard work has contributed to the overall success of the Local. As a result, the Local 79 Retiree Committee was formed in 1996 to help keep the Local's retirees connected with its current members and advocate for better retiree benefits.
Local 79 and the Mason Tenders District Council sponsor several events each year:
The Spring Luncheon
Yankee and Mets games
Belmont Racetrack Bar-B-Que
Atlantic City Bus Trips
Retiree Reunion- Orlando, Florida
Annual Christmas Luncheon
ALL RETIREE EVENTS INCLUDE:
Never any out of pocket cost to members
Food, beverage, & admission always provided
Spouses are welcomed and encouraged to attend
Giveaways and prizes
Local 79 publishes a quarterly newsletter to keep the retirees informed about news of the Local, benefit changes and upcoming events. These events are hugely popular among both retirees and the Local's leadership
