George Gilstrap, son of ILWU Local 8 Member Rick Gilstrap, donated the $216.00 he won in the 50/50 raffle back to the kids!  Shown accepting the generous donation is Lee Duncan, one of two Co-Chairs of Unions for Kids and an IBEW Local 48 Business Representative.  The Longshoremen not  only "talk the talk" but really "walk the walk" when it comes to supporting the community.  Last year, another ILWU member donated back the $100.00 he won for the high hand!!!
                
     Sincerest thanks to young Mr. Gilstrap!

We would like to thank the gentleman that showed the truest spirit of what this event is about.  He won the high Poker hand in 2006 and was awarded the $100.00 cash prize.  He donated that amount back to the kids!  Our most sincere thanks, thoughts and prayers go out to Joel Campbell of Warren, Oregon.
