25-year club | News, sports, jobs

Supported by a generous donation from First Choice America Credit Union, the Weirton Steel 25-Year Club will host its annual summer picnic for men and women on Saturday, July 13, at the Serbian Picnic Grounds in Weirton. The 25-Year Club has been in existence for over 75 years. This year’s picnic is not only for the 25-year service employees and retirees of the former Weirton Steel Corporation/Arcelor Mittal plant, but also for the current employees of Cleveland Cliffs.
