Day 3
We were very busy in the morning with
Committee reports, Constitutional
Amendments, final Resolutions and
Donations.
Taylor and Spencer McBride started
"Lisa's Beads" in memory of their
mother Lisa McBride, who succumbed
to non-Hodgkin lymphoma on July 6,
2003. Through sales at OPSEU
Convention 2006, "Lisa's Beads"
raised $3,005. This amount has been
matched by OPSEU for a total of
$6,010 to be used towards the fight
against cancer.
