President’s Message Mike May HBAL President The weekend before Thanksgiving marked the completion of HBAL’s 27th Toys for Santa Cop build. We had over 95 volunteers helping build 78 wooden toolboxes with blocks. To date we have built 1,910 wooden toys! Each year we hear how highly soughtafter our toys are at both the Santa Cop Auction and during Toyland at the Center for People in Need. What a great experience to be a part of something to help those in need. Thank you to all who helped with this awesome project! If you haven’t already RSVP’d for the HBAL Christmas Party on December 11 at Hillcrest Country Club, please be sure to do so. Comedian Gayle Becwar will be our entertainment that evening. He has previously performed for HBAL and I’ve heard he’s very entertaining! Don’t forget we’ll once again be doing our Reverse Raffle. Only 200 numbers will be sold and for $25 you have a chance at winning $1,000! On a personal note, I’m proud to announce the arrival of my first grandsons! They made an early arrival on November 23. Evon and I are beyond excited about the new additions to our family and cannot wait to spend this blessed Christmas Season with them!

Winter Safety Tips
Winter Safety Tips
Slick roads in the morning? Scraping ice off car windows? It’s time for all of us to prepare for ‘ole man winter. Did you know December is National Winter Storm Awareness Month? Take time now to prepare a safety kit in your car and share winter weather preparedness tips with friends, family and colleagues.
How to Prepare for a Winter Storm • Winterize your vehicle and keep the gas tank full. A full tank will keep the fuel line from freezing. • Insulate your home by installing storm windows or covering windows with plastic from the inside to keep cold air out. • Maintain heating equipment and chimneys by having them cleaned and inspected every year. • If you will be going away during cold weather, leave the heat on in your home, set to a temperature no lower than 55° F.
Put Together a Supply Kit for your Home • Water—at least a 3-day supply; one gallon per person per day • Food—at least a 3-day supply of non-perishable, easy-toprepare food • Flashlight [Available on the Red Cross Store] • Battery-powered or hand-crank radio (NOAA Weather Radio, if possible) [Available on the Red Cross Store] • Extra batteries • First aid kit [Available on the Red Cross Store] • Medications (7-day supply) and medical items (hearing aids with extra batteries, glasses, contact lenses, syringes, etc.) • Multi-purpose tool • Sanitation and personal hygiene items • Copies of personal documents (medication list and pertinent medical information, proof of address, deed/lease to home, passports, birth certificates, insurance policies)
Local service for the life of your mortgage loan.

Labor Force Loss
Your Building Envelope Specialist!
Labor Force Loss
Elliot Eisenberg, Ph.D. • GraphsandLaughs, LLC While the unemployment rate is 5.1% and has fallen smartly since peaking at 10% in October 2009, a key question is why? Part of the decline is due to people finding work who were previously unemployed, however part of the decline is from people dropping out of the labor force. To this end, there are 92 million Americans who are currently not part of the labor force. But that number includes, among others, retirees, students, and stay-at-home parents, groups that by necessity don’t work and are thus not part of the labor force. That said, realistically how many Americans are not in the labor force, and more importantly, is the problem getting worse?

First, the population of the US is roughly 319 million. Of that number, about 65 million are under 16 and are excluded from employment data for obvious reasons. That leaves roughly 255 million Americans who are over 16. However, that number includes 43 million Americans over 66, the age at which full Social Security benefits are available. Excluding such persons, even though some are employed, leaves 212 million people between 16 and 66. Of the 21 million between ages 16 and 20, 54% are in school, and one-third are in the labor force, meaning they are working or actively looking for work. And of the 23 million persons between 21 and 25, 73% are in the labor force and 13% are in school. Thus, between the ages of 16 and 25, 6 million people neither work nor attend school. For these ages, this is the number of persons who are really not part of the labor force. Of the 105 million persons between the ages of 26 and 50, 82% work, 8% care for a family member, which is not surprising given the number of school-age children and aging parents, 2% attend school, while 6% are either on disability or would like employment but are not seeking it out. Of the 62 million persons between 51 and 66, two-thirds work, 16% are retired and 12% are disabled, with the remaining 6% split between those wanting but not looking for a job and those caring for a family member. Thus, between the ages of 26 and 66, there are 20 million persons not working, not caring for a family member, not in school, and not retired, the number effectively not in the labor force.

So compared to decades ago are things better or worse? It depends. Compared to 1999, when labor force participation rates were at their all-time high, several things are apparent. First, back then Baby Boomers were in their prime working years, today they are in their 50s and 60s and rapidly retiring. Second, the percentage of full-time students has risen for every age category. Third, the percentage that are disabled and fourth, the percentage wanting a job but not looking for one have both risen across all age categories. It’s these last two categories that are of concern. In conclusion, the “real” number of Americans not in the labor force is at most 26 million, not the 92 million number that is widely cited, because many of those individuals are in school, caring for a family member, or as increasingly is the case, have retired. That said, the increase in the percentage of discouraged workers, those on disability, those in school, and those that are retired has risen by about five percentage points since 1999, thereby reducing both the labor force participation rate and the unemployment rate.

Share the Joy
Give a Toy
With the holiday season in full swing, it’s a good time to give back to the community. Did you participate in the Santa Cop Project this year? If you did, you may have noticed the snowmen ornaments the younger volunteers made at the kids’ table. YBP will be delivering these crafts to the residents of Lancaster Manor Rehabilitation on Matt Kinning Wednesday, December 2. (Those that help deliver can join us for a Hard Hat YBP President Happy Hour afterwards at Brewsky’s.) YBP is also collecting toys for local children who might not otherwise receive a gift. What’s another $10 on your holiday bills when you can put a smile on a child’s face? The Young Building Professionals committees had a successful meeting last month where we made plans for 2016. I’m looking forward to the variety of events and projects that are in the works. Our first event of 2016 will be a Holiday Party at The Cask on January 7. Huge thanks to Woods Bros Realty for sponsoring this YBP event! Attendees will enjoy free food and drinks as well as music by Ro Hempel. I wish you all a Happy Holiday Season!
