About Our Club
The IAMAW Local Lodge 1487 Retirees Club is dedicated to bringing together retired
members who were employed under Machinists contracts in the airline industry.
We meet the first Thursday of each month at 11:00am to discuss community initiatives,
plan special events, and enjoy a special lunch.
Our meetings are a great opportunity to stay connected, share experiences, and
contribute to our community. Highlights include our annual Christmas Luncheon held
at a banquet hall, which is a favorite among our members.
