The CAA held its annual Golf Outing on August 5, 2019 for the first time at New Albany Country Club. Over120 golfers and a variety of sponsors gathered for a fun-filled day of scramble golf, games, food and friendly competition. Golfers were directed to their starting tee for the 9:00 a.m. shot-gun start and continued to make their way around the course visiting with CAA Members on their sponsored holes some playing games, posing for photos, grabbing a snack or a drink and learning about products, services or companies before teeing off. In keeping with tradition all sponsors made their respective holes stand apart with various products or unique games creating a light, cheerful atmosphere for the golfers throughout the day.
Golfers were welcomed at registration with a continental breakfast provided by The Sherwin Williams Company. HD Supply took to the course mid-day to deliver the sponsored boxed lunches to each golfer and sponsor. Mulligans were once again sponsored by FABCO and RentPath sponsored the scorecards. BRG Apartments sponsored the carts while Chadwell Supply sponsored the 19th Hole after party. In addition, PPG Paints debuted as this year’s Tournament Sponsor.
After roughly five hours of golf and two short weather delays, golfers and sponsors enjoyed drinks and food in the ballroom anxiously awaiting the awards and swapping stories about their day.
CAA Executive Director, Laura Swanson opened the ceremony by thanking everyone for attending and had the privilege of announcing the winner of the 50/50 benefitting the CAA Community Assistance Foundation. After one unsuccessful draw, Bill Fritsche took home the $295 50/50 prize and an equal amount was donated to the CAA Community Assistance Foundation. Swanson then had the pleasure of announcing the winners. There were four skins at the event with three different teams splitting the $400 total skins pot. Environmental Pest Management took home two while BRG Apartments and CORT team 1 took home one each. Additionally, proximity awards were given to respective winners: Longest Drive Winners: Heath Harvey of Environmental Pest Management and Jennifer Foppe of PPG Paints; Longest Putt Winners: Jennifer Coco of Choice Property Resources and Marty Storm of PPG Paints and Closest to the Hole: Joe Peters of Zillow Group and Sarah Cheng of CertaPro Columbus. Next, the 2019 CAA Challenge Cup champions were announced. The top three teams were awarded gift certificates and trophies.
The second and third place teams were determined by a scorecard playoff with the BRG Apartments team of Bob Kohlman, Cass Hopkins, Jeff March and Alex Parlin taking third and the team from Link Real Estate Group, LLC and Jonathan Priest, Richard Baldini, Jim Ambrasio, and Ryan Linville taking second. And, for the fifth year in a row the team from Environmental Pest Management with Jason Carpenter, Pat Lang, Heath Harvey and Brad Harvey took home the top prize with a score of 55.
