A sneak peek at the 1st annual "Making Links Engineering Classic"

Although it was a cool blustery day, 112 golfers braved the elements to participate in the inaugural Making Links Engineering Classic held at the Elmhurst Golf & Country Club on Wednesday, August 18th. This event, organized by the APEGM Sports Committee in association with the University of Manitoba Faculty of Engineering, raised approximately $10,750 to support the new Engineering & Information Technology Complex currently under construction at the University of Manitoba.

In addition to the golf, participants had an opportunity to see first-hand some of the engineering projects that students participate in at the Faculty of Engineering. Many thanks to the Society of Automotive Engineering (SAE) students who had a couple of their projects on display at the golf course for everyone to view.

The APEGM Sports Committee and the U of MB Faculty of Engineering would like to express our thanks to the many sponsors who assisted in making this event such a success. In particular, we would like to thank Canad Inns and their staff for providing the golfers with a break from the blustery weather, with the hospitality tent they had setup at the 13th hole. We would also like to thank Murray Chevrolet - Hummer for providing the golfers with an opportunity to win a new car (unfortunately, no one made a hole-in-one this year). And, FastAir Ltd., who provided our Early-Bird prize (2 tickets to the "FastAir Grand Slam"). Please follow the link below to view a list of our major sponsors.
