INDUSTRYNEWS B.C. Chapter Of Canadian Door Institute – 35th Annual Springwinders Golf Tournament a Success! 51 Golfers took part in the 35th Annual BC CDI Springwinders Golf Tournament at Hazelmere Golf & Tennis Club in South Surrey, BC on July 14, 2012. The tournament was founded in 1977 by Ron Fines and Dave Withers, both of whom continued to golf this year! The event continues to be organized by the BC Chapter's Board of Directors, Scott Jessiman (President), Ron Fines, Colleen Mooney, Colin Liebenow, Nick Balston, Darrell Hitchens, Mike Morelli, Mike Plecash and Dave Arts. The Springwinders Tournament is subsidised by the BC CDI, and gives local companies a platform to see familiar faces, and meet new industry friends. Arrow Tru-Line Supports Scholarships Like many IDA members, Arrow Tru-Line provides annual fi nancial support to the IDA Scholarship Foundation. During the re- cent IDAExpo Golf Tournament conducted in Las Vegas, not only was the company a Corporate Sponsor of the Golf Tourna- ment and Bike Ride, but also featured their 'beat the pro' competition that raised an additional $1,200.00 for the Foundation. In total, the fi rm provided $3,200.00 to the Foundation. In addition to supporting the IDA Scholar- ship Foundation, Arrow Tru-Line believes deeply in providing funding for "Wounded Warriors". With their sponsored activities during the IDAExpo, the company's effort resulted in a fi nancial gift to the program in the amount of $601.00. Following the tournament, golfers and other industry members enjoyed a deluxe buffet dinner and dessert, prepared by Hazelmere. After dessert, each attendee received one of the generous prizes, including a number of golf clubs and golf bags. The tournament winners were presented with their new trophy, on which their names will be engraved. The winners of the Long Drive and KP holes were awarded gift cards in lieu of trophies. Special thanks to Sierra of Westgate Door Industries, for bravely volunteering to sit at the Westgate sponsored KP Hole, handing out refreshments to parched Door Guys (and Gals), and for taking the photos during the evening. As well, Colleen Mooney (Canadian Doormaster) and Krista Douglas (Doorcare) donated their time to run registration and handle ticket sales for the mulligans and putting contest. As always, partial proceeds of the tournament will be donated to charity.
