Astek’s How’s My Drive Web Site Launched Today
One of my favorite days of the year is the CoreNet Classic Golf Outing, held annually at Cantigny Golf Course by the fabulous folks at CoreNet Global Chicago Chapter. This year’s outing was held Sept. 16 and the day could not have been more beautiful!
As a CoreNet Platinum Sponsor, Astek gets to have 2 “sitters” hang out at a tee and schmooze with players as they enjoy the tourney. As a non-golfer myself, I consider the “sitter” position to be the ideal way to spend a Wednesday!
I get to sit in the sun, take in the lovely view of the course, talk to people who are happy to be out of the office and give away free stuff! This year’s freebies included bio-degradable “Eco” golf tees and adorable little Astek ball markers.
This year, like last year, we video taped each golfer’s swing.
We then post the videos on our “How’s My Drive” Web site so the golfers can check out their form.
Golfers on Astek’s Team included Andy Swindler, Tom Lynch (our new CMO), Mike Piper of Proverb Associates and Mike Cello of UGL Equis. Even Andrew Crowe (who was running the video camera all day) and I (Katie Hawkey) took a swat at a ball for the camera – and for your amusement. Enjoy!
A special thanks to Kevin Reed of vin design for designing our cool sign (that somehow made it into just about every picture) and for silkscreening the awesome, custom Astek polos. Is that a sharp looking group or what!?
