Union expects big crowd at today's protest in Royal Oak BY BILL LAITNER, Detroit Free Press
A picket line averaging about 50 union carpenters at a building site in downtown Royal Oak is expected to swell to several hundred today.
Members of the Michigan Regional Council of Carpenters, who've been at the site at 11 Mile and Main for about a month, said they'll be joined by union plumbers, sheet-metal workers, electricians and the Easter bunny.
