Bricklayers Convention Re-elect Flynn Team
Delegates to the 2005 International Union of Bricklayers and Allied Craftworkers Convention (BAC) gave a unanimous vote of confidence to the Union's Executive Board when they returned the "Flynn Team" to a new five-year term of service.

In speeches nominating the officers, delegates emphasized the Union's good fortune in having strong, bold, innovative leaders who have advanced BAC's strategic goals in the areas of training, organizing and expanding market share.

The Newly Elected Executive Board
# President John J. Flynn
President Flynn was nominated for his second full term by Local 1 Missouri Business Manager Don Brown, who said the incumbent has "proven to all of us he has the knowledge and experience to lead this great International Union into the future.... He's a team player, and he surrounds himself with team players."

"I want to thank all of you for your confidence. It is truly a privilege to lead this great Union," Flynn said upon his re-election.

Flynn became international president in 1999, and was elected to a full five-year term in 2000. A 53-year member of Local 1 Missouri, Flynn is a journeyman bricklayer who also worked as a foreman and superintendent.

The nomination was seconded by Local 1 Hawaii President Larry Correa.
