A cannery strike comes to life It was one of the most remark- able strikes of the 1980s: A thousand frozen food workers in Watsonville, California struck for 18 months — and won in an era of union-busting. Now the story comes to the stage in a play by Cherríe Mor- aga, based on interviews she conducted with residents of Watsonville. Watsonville: Some Place Not Here will have a three-week run at Portland’s Milagro Theater. ■ When: May 3-26, Thursdays through Saturdays at 7:30 p.m.; Sundays at 2 p.m. ■ Where: Milagro Theatre, 525 SE Stark Street, Portland ■ More info: milagro.org/event/watsonville Register for Washington CLUB golf tournament The Washington CLUB (Contrac- tors, Legislators, Unions and Busi- ness) Charity Golf Classic will be held June 13-14 at Gold Mountain Golf Complex in Bremerton, Wash. Founded by the Washing- ton State Building & Construction Trades Council, WA-CLUB is a unique event that brings legisla- tors, local and national union offi- cials, and business leaders together for a common cause — raising funds for local charities.
