MIO/CTIO Annual Golf Tournament

Words: Carl LeeThe Masonry and Ceramic Tile Institute of Oregon’s 2013 Annual Golf Tournament was, like many years before, held at Langdon Farm’s Golf Club in Aurora, Oregon. The weather was pleasant; which allotted for a wonderful day of golf and ensured that everyone worked up a healthy appetite for the BBQ style buffet lunch served afterward.

In light of the current economic circumstance we greatly appreciate the support we receive for industry functions like this; that allow time for relaxing, friendly competition, and just simply enjoying the company of some of the men and women that form this industry.

Also, The Masonry and Ceramic Tile Institute of Oregon would like to send our sincerest gratitude to Lenny and Linda Pardue, Stacey Hillesland, Pat Murphy, Nathan Storey, and the crew at Langdon Farms for assisting in assuring the success of the MIO/CTIO tournament. In addition, MIO/CTIO would like to extend a warm thank you to Mutual Materials and Willamette Graystone for donating gift certificates for our drawing.
