Milton-2015-WebDecked out in red, UFCW Canada Local 1000A members and staff took to downtown Milton to spread holiday cheer at the city's annual Santa Claus Parade.

On the morning of Sunday November 16, volunteers started decorating the union float for the afternoon parade.

Local 1000A's participation was organized by our Community Action Network (CAN).

"This is a great event which brings families, communities and unions together," said Mary Joe Eaton, a Local 1000A Executive Board Member. "Our participation is about giving back and strengthening our ties with the larger community."

"I want to thank all of our members, staff and families who came out in support of this joyful event- your participation made this event a success," said Jonathan Lobo, Local 1000A's CAN Coordinator.

If you know of any events within your community or have any suggestions for the local's Community Action Network to participate in, please contact Jonathan Lobo at 416.459.5077.
