> The Midstate Central Labor Council, AFL-CIO, and the Tompkins County Workers' Center will hold the 32nd Annual Labor Day Picnic from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Monday, September 7th, in Ithaca's Stewart Park. This year’s picnic theme is “Organizing for Respect”. Music provided by Richie Stearns and the Evil City String Band.
> 
> The Labor Council and Workers’ Center invite YOU to join us and enjoy free picnic fare, music, and presentations of awards. The picnic is free and everyone is invited. Everyone is asked to bring a dish to share and to enjoy the free burgers (meat and veggie), hot dogs, and beverages.
> 
> The annual awards have become a highlight of the Labor Day Picnic over the years, and this year will be no different. The Mother Jones and Joe Hill awards are presented to people for their activism, organizing, and sacrifice at work. The Friend of Labor award is presented to a member of the community who has spoken out publicly or taken action in support of working people. The notorious Goat of Labor goes to an especially egregious offender of workers’ rights and/or the value of labor to our common good.
> 
> Local human service agencies, Living Wage Employers, and other organizations are welcome to have organizing tables at the event (however, please contact in advance). For more information, contact the Workers' Center at TCWRH at tcworkerscenter.org, 607-269-0409, or via the website, www.TCWorkersCenter.org
