Business meetings and plenty of fun at QPMA golf tournament
The 57th annual Quebec Produce Marketing Association Golf Tournament took place beneath a beautiful blue sky on July 17 at the Parcours du Cerf golf course in Longueuil, QC. Once again, the event was a swinging success with almost 288 enthusiastic golfers on the fairways and 350 guests at supper that evening.
On this festive day, the QPMA took the opportunity to present a check for $5,000 to Breakfast Club of Canada. Its mission is to nurture potential and grow healthy students, giving an equal chance of success to all kids, one breakfast at a time, a message that holds special meaning for the QPMA Board President Sammy Cacciatore of Sun Grape Marketing.
From the moment golf committee chairman Enrico Charest of Sobeys Québec made the opening tee shot, players enjoyed a perfect day for quality networking and showcasing their talents in action. Golfers may have been divided into two groups playing on different courses, but they were all able to challenge themselves in the skills competition and sample a sensational spread of gourmet delights out on the links.
Once the tournament was over, guests enjoyed a lively cocktail hour before digging into a mouth-watering barbecue supper in a perfect setting for catching up on news and meeting with members and friends of the QPMA. Hosted by Richard Morency, the evening concluded with the presentation of the day’s trophies and a draw for more than 60 door prizes that made for lots of very happy winners.
"We wish to thank our sponsors, partners and — of course – the golfers for making this event a huge success," QPMA said in a press release. "Don’t miss our 58th annual tournament in July 2016. We promise it’ll be tons of fun."
