TWU Local 100 at the West Indian Day Parade

SEPTEMBER 1 -- TWU Local 100 showed up and showed out at this year’s West Indian Day Parade on Labor Day, repping our union and celebrating Caribbean pride in a big way.

Members came out in droves, waving their flags high and honoring the rich culture that helps make this city what it is. President John Chiarello said it best: “It’s a beautiful day to march side by side with our West Indian sisters and brothers who contribute so much to the culture of this city and help keep it moving.”

We kicked things off at Utica Avenue, where members were greeted with T-shirts, good vibes, and unity. The energy was electric as we stepped off into the parade, led by our very own float pumping music and one of our city buses rolling with us down Eastern Parkway.

The celebration didn’t stop there—Caribbean food, music, and community kept the party going strong at our Mas Camp.

It was a powerful reminder: TWU Local 100 is more than a union—we’re a family, and when we show up together, we move this city forward with strength, culture, and pride.
