    Local 533 Journeyman and Instructor Dane Gonser competed in this year's Plumbing-Heating-Cooling Contractors Association (PHCC) National HVAC apprentice contest in Birmingham, Alabama.  The contest is open to trade-workers across the nation who were apprentices in 2024.  Dane won first place! This is the second time the UA has selected one of our members to represent the United Association in this contest and the second championship we have brought home.  Congratulations Dane!
