The 2007 item North America golf outing was a huge success.

Over 110 item customers, vendors and service providers participated in the 5th bi-annual outing held at Raintree Country Club in Akron Ohio.

Outing participants came from Maryland, Connecticut, New Jersey, Illinois, South Carolina, Michigan, Canada, and even Germany.




Luk, automotive component supplier from Wooster, Ohio won first place for the fourth time in five item golf outings with a score of fifteen under par. The team from Matson America / Conway Freight finished a close second at thirteen under par.

Prior to the outing, an open house allowed first time visitors an opportunity to tour the item North American headquarters which contained a number of high end linear applications and projects ready for shipment to end users.

As always, the Akron Ohio headquarters welcomes visitors at any time. Please contact our inside sales department at 888-729-4500 or itemsales@itemAmerica.com to set up an appointment.

We would like to give a special thanks to the event coordinator Jered Lance and the entire item North America staff that helped: Michael Nordhauss, Christian Nordhauss, Eveline Nordhauss, Joy Ramsey, Rick Bishop, Nick Kittinger, Peter Ludwig, Allen Scheuering, Kristin Johnson, Rick Sabo, Matt Memmer, Carlton Hartman, and Eric Shelton. Without their support, this outing could not have been such a great success. This bi-annual golf outing serves a dual purpose in that it allows item to build strong business relationships while thanking customers for a successful ten years in Ohio.


We look forward to the next item North America golf outing which will be held during the summer of 2009.
