Chair – 2009 ASID San Diego 2nd Annual Golf Classic

After many hours and days of phone calls, emails, meetings, coordinating with all the sponsors and thegolf course it all came together on a beautiful August afternoon and it was fantastic! If you weren’t there, you really missed out on a good time. We went back to Lomas Santa Fe CC to have our 2nd Annual Golf Classic, the course was thrilled to have us back and all the sponsors and players were stoked to be playing such a beautiful golfcourse. The course was in great shape as were the players, the defending champs (Danmer Shutters)were back to defend their title and a lot of other teams were looking to take it from them. Congratsto BKM Officeworks for winning this years event!

Participation was great this year; the Industry Partners really stepped up to the tee with sponsorshipsand players. The designers represented themselves well and we ended up with 19 teams for this year’sevent. The pairings worked out well as many of the Industry Partners and Designers were able to establish new relationships and reestablish old ones. This was a very fun day that started off with team photos by our golf photographer Jason Holmes and having plenty of time to warm up before heading out onto the course. After a few words from thepro and a thank you, have a great time and make sure to heckle the other players by me, we dispersedonto the course. While on the course we all were having fun, the heckling was in full effect (I cannot repeat some ofthe things said) Ha! But it worked and they choked, just kidding, it was all in fun. And speaking of fun,there were sponsors tables and their people working the course (Thank You), with info, treats andgames. I cannot forget to mention Diego Delivery for sponsoring the beverage carts which providedlibations during the round. This loosened everybody up and made it even more fun. Thanks Richard!As everyone made their way around the course they also got a chance to test drive the awesomeoutdoor furniture from Sunset West our Bronze sponsor that was on hole #1, it was very comfortable! We all made it back to the 19th hole for some drinks and socializing before the dinner/awards ceremony and I’m glad to report that there were no casualties! The awards part of the evening was a blast!

Thank you to our Sponsors!
