REMINDER – POLAR PLUNGE – SPECIAL OLYMPICS
It’s time to go out and “freeze for a reason” again at the Polar Plunge on Sunday, December 2nd , plunging into Oneida Lake to raise money for the Special Olympics. The money raised will help send athletes to compete in the games. Please consider donating – any amount helps, large or small. You can click on the link below to go to my fundraising page or to make a donation to one of our other Local Officers or fellow members on the CSEA Region 5 team. Better yet, sign up to join us. Many thanks to those that have already contributed. Thank you!!

UNIFORM & EQUIPMENT ALLOWANCE
UCS has notified CSEA that the Uniform and Equipment allowance will be paid out on December 12, 2018.
HOLIDAY RECESS – WORKING UP TO TWO DAYS
A reminder that we have a side letter (similar to a pilot program) to our 2017-2020 contract that contains the language “During the 2017, 2018, and 2019 court recess periods, employees may report to work up to two (2) days and shall not be required to charge leave credits.” This gives you the option to not have to charge the four days of AL based on Article 9.2(l) but rather you may work two days and only have to charge two days of AL.
SAVE THE DATE
Mark your summer calendars for August 17th, 2019, for the Syracuse Mets Party Deck event. More info to follow in the Spring!
Wishing everyone a Happy Thanksgiving!
