Many "Chip In" to Support AASV Foundation

August 24, 2011 — AASV Staff

More than 50 golfers are slated to participate in the AASV Foundation Midwest Golf Outing on Thursday, August 25. With sunny skies in the forecast, the golfers can look forward to a fun day at the Landsmeer Golf Club in Orange City, Iowa, thanks in large part to support from the outing sponsors: NPPC has sponsored hole #1 on the course, and a Chr Hansen representative will be greeting golfers at hole #4. DeWaay Capital Management will be taking golf team photos at hole #11, and Alltech is hosting a contest at hole #18. The foundation is hosting additional contests on the course to challenge the golfers and ratchet up the competitive spirit. At the end of the day, Pfizer Animal Health is sponsoring the pork chop dinner to recognize and reward the team and individual contest winners. These sponsors not only add to the fun of the event, they provide important financial support to the AASV Foundation. Proceeds from the outing support ongoing foundation programs such as swine research grants, travel stipends for veterinary students to attend the annual meeting, swine externship grants, and member recollection videos, to name a few.
