Pictures from
PHRMA's Annual Golf Tournament June 8, 2007
Presented by PSU HRMA
The ladies of Boly:Welch Staffing Services enjoy a beautiful day of golfing and sunshine.
"Isn't golf all about concentration?" This Stoller Group foursome display their fine tools of the game (L to R Peter Stember,Michael Adamski, Michael Stachowiak, and Paul Alati). However, shortly after this picture was taken, everyone made a nice shot down the fairway and into the same bunker. Proving that the PHRMA Tournament is all about having a great day with collegues for a great cause... Not a great golf score... We give a big thank you to the Stoller Group as title and lunch sponsor of the tournament.
(From L to R) Enrique Washington of Generator Group, Margaret McCarthy of PacifiCorp, and Coni Crone with Jeff Tubs of Bullard Smith Jernstedt Wilson smile for our camera. Coni has a lot to smile about; she won both the Women's Longest Drive and the Women's Closest to Pin contests.
(From L to R) Tim Rasch of EPB&B Insurance, Michael Carrano of Edward Jones, Zoa Nielsen of Knight Financial, and Judy Hutchison of Capital Pacific Bank take pause for a camera shot. We give a big thank you to EPB&B Insurance for their help sponsoring the Longest and Shortest Drive contests.
Our illustrious Director of College Relations, Patti Varner, assembled a fantastic team of golfers. Joining her (from L to R) are John Jaha, Frank Wakayama, and Dan Stuper. They tied for Best Team Score.
Only one team could take home the prize for Best Team Score, however, and the winners were...! Jason DiGiacomo of Siltronic/ ESM, Ryan Pennington of Integrated Corporate Property Services, and Jeremy Reed and Kevin Case of Synetics.
Margaret McCarthy of PacifiCorp and Rick Howell of Knowledge Learning Corporation discuss the day's events while fellow golfers, including PSU HRMA's fearless leader, Alan Cabelly, look on.
PSU HRMA student volunteers Shyla Waldern (current president) and Kerensa Loucks (VP of External Relations) get ready to take a lap of the golf course. We thank all of the student volunteers for their hard work!
