Labor Day 2025
It was a fun day at the Canton Labor Day parade! We are thankful to celebrate organized labor (past, present & future) with our union brothers & sisters. We especially love seeing the next generation of the movement with the 'Little Teamsters' who really make this event special. Thank you to everyone who took time on their holiday to come out and celebrate with us. A special thank you to Kristy Speciale for the great photos she took of the event. We appreciate you all and hope to see everyone again next year!

Labor Day 2024
Local 61 celebrated Labor Day with a great crowd of our members and their families, our largest turnout to date! We rode again this year on our float through the historic streets of Canton, NC. Beginning in 1906, Canton holds the longest running parade in the South with 2024 marking its 116th year. Thank you to everyone who came out on your holiday to celebrate this event with us, we hope to see even more of you next year! We were glad to have Asheville City Council Member Kim Rhoney join us in support of Labor.
