On August 19, the 17^th annual Making Links Engineering Classic golf day was held at Quarry Oaks in Steinbach. One hundred and seventy-six golfers joined us on the links for a day of golf, prizes, and an opportunity to network with fellow professionals. This year, we raised over $18,000 in support of the Price Faculty of Engineering at the University of Manitoba! Thank you to all of our generous sponsors and everyone who came out to make this event possible. Congratulations to the winning team from WD Industrial!
