With the 25th anniversary of the 1985 Hormel strike approaching later this month, the Austin Daily Herald is looking to gather memories and share them with the Austin community.
If you have a story to tell, or a picture to share, please contact the Herald’s newsroom via e-mail at newsroom@austindailyherald.com.
Please keep written submissions relatively brief and appropriate for publication, as the Herald is planning on using select stories in a special issue set to run Aug. 15.
With photos, please include appropriate caption information, as well as the name of the photographer, if possible. If you don’t have a photo in a digital format but would still like to share it, please stop at the Herald’s office (310 Second St. NE) so we can scan it.
Also, if you’d be more comfortable talking with a reporter about your strike story, please call (507) 434-2232.
