Organized in 1864, we are theBricklayers Local 1, and the first Labor Union and Local of any trade west of the Mississippi River. The Bricklayers & Allied Craftworkers Administrative Council of Eastern Missouri represents Local 1 of Missouri bricklayers, stone, pointers/cleaners/caulkers and marble masons, and Local 18 of Missouri tilesetters, terrazzo and mosaic workers.
We take pride in the fact that we've built St. Louis, and that our leadership has taken care of the membership of this Union for more than 150 years, and will continue to do so for many more.
It was our pleasure to present Brother Richard Abeln, a 3rd Generation Member and 3rd Generation Contractor, with his 75 Years of Service Award recently.
It was our pleasure to present Brother Robert Granzow with his 75 Years of Service Award recently. Shown are Eastern Missouri Secretary-Treasurer John Hopkin, Brother Robert Granzow, his wife Shirley, and ADC of Eastern Missouri Director Brian Jennewein.
Congratulations to Brother Granzow on this milestone, thank you for your many years of loyalty to Local 1!
Our Apprentice Coordinators and Instructors, along with some of our Business Agents and Apprentices, recently attended the Build My Future Job Fair held at the St. Charles Family Arena. During the event, they showcased our trades to over 1,000 high school seniors in the St. Louis area, and gave them the opportunity to try it out for themselves.
The video below shows some of the highlights of that event
