MCMP faculty David Riese, Val Watts, Eric Barker, and Joe Borowitz Pat Berges <strong>of</strong> Tyco/Mallinckrodt and Pr<strong>of</strong>essor Emeritus Stan Shaw enjoy watching the bids go higher R ather than the Seven Plagues <strong>of</strong> Egypt on Thursday, May 18, <strong>2006</strong>, participants in the 10th Annual BoileRx Golf Outing endured the Five Plagues <strong>of</strong> Indiana: rain, hail, high winds, thunder, and lightning. In spite <strong>of</strong> the weather, a record total <strong>of</strong> 168 golfers participated in the event which raised over $20,000 in funds for <strong>Pharmacy</strong> Scholarships. All contestants, sponsors, and volunteers came away a bit damp on the outside, but satisfied inside that the day was still enjoyable and a huge success. Many thanks go to the <strong>Purdue</strong> <strong>Pharmacy</strong> Alumni Association volunteers, as well as volunteers from The Chao Center for Industrial <strong>Pharmacy</strong> and Contract Manufacturing and the School <strong>of</strong> <strong>Pharmacy</strong> faculty and staff, for guiding golfers to and from the course throughout the afternoon as the pop-up storms came through. The <strong>2006</strong> BoileRx was again sponsored by The Chao Center. The day began with boxed lunches provided by Kroger Company and then a mad dash to the carts to get in at least one hole <strong>of</strong> golf before the first wave <strong>of</strong> bad weather. Then it was back to the Voin<strong>of</strong>f Pavilion to watch and wait. Shortly thereafter, golfers filed back to the carts to pick up where they had left <strong>of</strong>f. This scene was repeated several times throughout the afternoon, resulting in quite a bit <strong>of</strong> jockeying and jocularity. Even the heartiest golfers admitted that nine holes was sufficient for the day as they lined up for a delicious dinner <strong>of</strong> “chicken on the barbie” and all the trimmings graciously sponsored by Tyco/ Mallinckrodt. Following dinner, the 2nd annual BoileRx post-golf auction began. Al Goetz presided as auctioneer and was the highlight <strong>of</strong> the evening. Through his efforts and the generosity <strong>of</strong> the donors who provided the auction items, nearly $3,000 additional dollars were raised for scholarships.
