SOCMA golf outing creates buzz<br />
and connections in Charleston<br />
While there are many venues that bring together members of the<br />
speciality and fine chemical supply chain, there may not be one<br />
more popular or fun than the golf course.<br />
For years, leaders in the industry<br />
have enjoyed a casual day on the<br />
links where they can talk business<br />
and have a great time. And this<br />
year was no exception.<br />
Set against the picturesque<br />
backdrop of Charleston, South<br />
Carolina, US, more than 100<br />
golfers and guests connected<br />
with potential business partners<br />
at SOCMA’s 14th Annual Golf<br />
Tournament & Dinner. Held on 4<br />
September at Dunes West Golf &<br />
River Club, the tournament kicked<br />
off the Specialty & Agro <strong>Chemicals</strong><br />
America show, creating a buzz that<br />
carried over onto the trade show<br />
floor the next day.<br />
“SOCMA has long been known<br />
as a convener within the speciality<br />
and fine chemical supply chain,”<br />
said SOCMA President and<br />
CEO, Jennifer Abril. “We were<br />
thrilled to offer our members and<br />
guests this opportunity to make<br />
these important connections and<br />
partnerships that will help them<br />
grow their businesses.<br />
“This year’s tournament once<br />
again supported the American<br />
Chemical Society Scholars<br />
Programme, which plays a key<br />
part in sustaining and growing<br />
our industry,” Abril said. “The<br />
Programme awards renewable<br />
scholarships to underrepresented<br />
minority students majoring in<br />
undergraduate chemistry-related<br />
disciplines. Through the generosity<br />
of our golfers, SOCMA has given<br />
more than US$70,000 (60,400)<br />
throughout the years to this<br />
worthwhile cause.<br />
“We want to thank all of our<br />
generous sponsors, especially<br />
Edgewater Capital Partners –<br />
including Callery, ChemQuest<br />
<strong>Chemicals</strong>, DanChem and Far<br />
Chemical, Inc – which served<br />
as our primary sponsor for the<br />
event,” Abril said. “I would also<br />
like to recognise our outstanding<br />
golf committee, as well as our<br />
coordinator for the event, Ben<br />
Jones, president of Century<br />
Global, LLC, for giving their time<br />
to make this year’s tournament<br />
a roaring success.”<br />
SOCMA will host the 2019<br />
Golf Tournament & Dinner on 3<br />
September in Charleston prior to<br />
the Specialty & Agro <strong>Chemicals</strong><br />
America show. Please save the<br />
date. The location and more details<br />
will be forthcoming. £<br />
