Scout's
Cookout at Riverscape
This year’s sponsor
for the Send-a-Scout-to-Camp lunch was the Labor Management
Cooperation Committee (LMCC) of the International Brotherhood
of Electrical Workers (IBEW) Local 82 and the Western Ohio
Chapter of the National Electrical Contractor’s
Association (NECA). These organizations are the leaders in the
electrical construction industry in the Miami Valley. In
addition to donating funds, both contractors and electricians
volunteered their time to coordinate advertising, ticket
distribution, and provided on-site assistance. CEO of
Chapel-Romanoff Technologies, Dennis Quebe, is a Scout
Executive Board member and was responsible for bringing the
Boy Scouts together with the LMCC.
This year’s Cookout
raised over $18,000 for camperships for boys. The Scouts will
attend either a week long adventure camp at Woodland Trails
Camp in Camden or experience a five day camp of fun and
learning in the great outdoors.

Electrifying
Careers
The National Labor
Management Cooperation Committee (NLMCC), a joint entity of the
National Electrical Contractors Association (NECA) and the
International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW), is the sole
sponsor of racing phenomena Alli Owens. A prominent feature of the
sponsorship is the use of the URL www.ElectrifyingCareers.com
emblazoned across the hood of Ms.
Owens’ race car. The site is aimed at getting young people charged
up about careers in the electrical industry.
Alexandra "Alli" Owens
grew up racing BMX bicycles and Quarter Midget cars in her home state
of Florida. She’s been racing ever since.
Several NECA and IBEW members
recently attended an ARCA RE/MAX event at the Kentucky Speedway where
Alli raced. The "Kentucky 150" set a track record for most
female competitors in a major race field. Alli Owens placed 15 th,
Gabi DiCarlo finished 17th,
Angela Cope 29th and Amber
Cope 38th.
