The weekend of July 7 & 8 was full of fun and meaningful activities for our members and their families.

On Saturday, July 7, members and their families enjoyed a night out at the Vancouver Canadians baseball where they enjoyed great company including President David Black, Secretary-Treasurer Lori Mayhew and a number of MoveUP staff, great food, a spectacular fireworks show, and a 7-3 win for the home team over the visiting Spokane Indians.

Thank you to our Events & Social Planning Committee for organizing, and our on-site coordinators including executive councillor Tania Busch, and staff members Kat Prinz and Kim Chartier.

On Sunday, July 8, MoveUP members and their families participated in the annual Victoria Pride Parade celebrating, but also protesting for, the rights of the LGBTQ2S+ community as well as our shared values of inclusivity, equality, fairness, dignity and respect. Members and their families were joined in the march by President David Black, vice-presidents Annette Toth and Christy Slusarenko, executive board member Gunter Seifert as well as a number of MoveUP staff and members of USW 2009 who participated with us in our joint display.

Thank you to the Human Rights & Multicultural Committee for organizing and everybody involved for helping set up and marching!
