Supported by a generous contribution from First Choice America Credit Union, the Weirton Steel 25-Year Club will stage its annual summer picnic on July 12 at the Serbian Picnic Grounds in Weirton. The 25-Year club has been in existence for over 75 years. This year’s picnic is not only for the employees and retirees of the former Weirton Steel Corporation/Arcelor Mittal plant with 25 years of service but also for active employees at Cleveland Cliffs. Pictured from left, seated are members of the 25-Year Club: Ernie Nicholas Jr., Kathy Bailey, Brenda Ice, Alan Carroll, Dan Kelly, and David Dulaney. Presenting the donation, in back from left, are: John R. Thayer, First Choice America board member; Kenneth W. Truax, First Choice America board member; Ron Baker, 25-Year Club president; Scott E. Winwood, First Choice America president and chairman of the board; Thomas F. Thayer, First Choice America board member; and Edward O. Kennedy, First Choice America board member.
