Inaugural ASGA Victorian Golf Day a hole-in-one success

Sixty-four sign industry golf enthusiasts teed off at the Sandhurst Golf Club on the 7^th of September at ASGA’s inaugural Victorian Golf Day, with fifteen also attending the pre-golf networking evening event at the Espy on the 6^th of September.

“We’re a small team at ASGA, but we’re making a real effort this year, after a couple of years of COVID disruptions, to host events around the nation,” said Michael Punch, ASGA Events Manager.

“There are many benefits for getting the industry together: there’s the fun and social aspect, and then there’s the sharing of knowledge and business challenges which can help with fostering a positive outlook.

“Hosting a golf day and networking evening in Victoria has been on our agenda for some time. We’re pleased with the turnout and positive feedback from attendees. All agreed the event should become a regular one on the industry calendar.

“We thank the sign companies who supported the event, many of whom brought along as guests some key clients.  Thanks especially to the event sponsors:  Spicers, Graphic Art Mart, SMIB, General Formulations, Amari Visual, Ball & Doggett, Bounce LED, Corex Graphics, Hexis, HVG, Mulford Australia, Signarama, SignManager and Visual Technologies,” concluded Punch.

ASGA congratulates the winning team from Hexis (John Papadopoulos, Ian Parsonson, Jamie Stone, Dean Stone) and runners-up team from the golf day’s principal sponsor, Spicers (Scott Houghton, Shane Britten, Matt Hogg, Graeme Lidgerwood).

Thoren Hadley from Signmanager won a set of golf clubs generously donated by Sign Manufacturers Insurance Brokers (SMIB), for Nearest to the Pin on the Par 3, 16^th hole. Other winners included: Wes Chandler (Form A Sign), Mark Prosser (KwikKopy), Michael Pryor (Corex), Andrew Sear (SMIB) and Matt Newton (Ball & Doggett).
