2013 LFSA 7th Annual Golf Classic Benefiting the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation

Picture
This year’s Golf Classic was held at the Santa Maria Golf Course in Baton Rouge, LA. This annual event is held in memory of Brad Bella and raises money for the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation.  We are very excited to report that we surpassed our goal and raised $16,000 for this great cause. A big Thank You goes out to all the sponsors and players who helped raise the funds. It was an enjoyable day for all, bringing together LFSA members, contractors, suppliers, fabricators, architects and engineers.    (more photos)
