Visitors to Denali National Park are being greeted by strikers on a picket line at the park entrance. Larry Bell, business manager for IBEW Local 1547, says three picket lines have been set up. One is at the park entrance and the other two are at the visitor center.
The strike was called Wednesday after negotiations between the union representing 17 bus mechanics, radio technicians and warehouse workers at the national park broke down over wage and pension issues.
Bell says the strike is getting a lot of support, not only from other park employees and members of the business community but tourists as well.
Bell says the union and Doyon/ARAMARK management met Thursday morning and could meeting again in the afternoon.
