Happy new year! We Wish all the best in 2025

Boilermakers Local lodge 191 retired members luncheon 2025

Thank you Local 191 retired members!

We had a great turn out this year, ninety one guests attended, and it was great to see everyone. Thank you to everyone who attended, we are planning to continue this event for 2026. We welcome your feed back and suggestions to make next years even better. Please contact the office.

Thank you to Darrell Walker, David Cashin, and James Utterson for their kind words to our retired members. The feed back we have so far is the gift cards were well received, the gift baskets were top notch, and the food spread was spot on. The company was pretty good too.

Retired Members Luncheon 2026

Some of our Sr. members have already committed to next years event, I expect to see you there!

Thank you again for your contribution to Local 191, and to our community for our families, friends, and future members in Victoria BC
