Over the past few years, the number of eligible Local 701 members has declined for the Annual Incentive Point Drawing. So instead of awarding (1) large prize to (1) member, this year we decided to give an award to each of the (5) eligible members who have earned the most incentive points in 2023 and in 2022/2023 combined.

Each of the following members were awarded a $500 gift card by PowerForward DuPage Director, Lauren Mesich during the Corned Beef and Cabbage Dinner on Thursday, March 14th:

  • Debbie Erbach
  • Martin Drew
  • Leon Feltes
  • Nick Johansen
  • Leo Serna

Congratulations to our above winners for earning the most incentive points over the past (2) years!

NECA-IBEW 701 LMCC/PowerForward DuPage established an Incentives Program back in 1996 to promote membership participation in continuing education and other activities that are a benefit to them and the electrical industry.

Incentive points are awarded to Local 701 members for participation in journeyman training classes, volunteer work in certain PowerForward DuPage sponsored activities and attendance at various union functions.

The requirements for eligibility in the PowerForward DuPage Annual Incentive Point Drawing are as follows:

  • Must be a Local 701 member in good standing.
  • Must have earned at least (12) incentive points during the current year or at least a total of (24) or more incentive points during the previous year and current year combined.

If you have any questions regarding this program, please contact the PowerForward DuPage Director, Lauren Mesich at (630) 393-1701 Extension 5.
