It is with a heavy heart that we announce the passing of Brother Mark Johnson. Mark lost a short lived battle with cancer. His wife and family would like to extend an invitation to any of his coworkers and friends to pay their last respects at a Celebration of Life that will be held on February 22nd from 5-7pm at:
The Sportsman's Club
10645 N. Lanes Rd.
Brothers and Sisters,
We currently have several Solar projects with Energy Storage PLA's in place and waiting for funding. It is critical that we make sure these jobs are performed by our Inside Wiremen contractors (C-10) and not by a purely solar company (C-46). If we lose these jobs to the C-46 contractors, anyone can do them and that means laborers stealing our work again.
The State of California has required state certification for all electricians for many years now. Most contractors will not hire you until your state cert is validated. If you already have a state cert, please DO NOT forget to renew it in a timely manner! The State has a backlog of about 8-10 weeks before it shows on their database as being renewed.
We have two locations that we dispatch out of for the convenience of members, Fresno and Visalia. Our main Fresno Hall is at 5410 E. Home, Fresno, CA 93727. Visalia Dispatch will be held at 3200 S. Fairway Suite C. It's on the corner of Dorothea and Fairway.
All first time dispatches MUST be from our main office in Fresno.
