The informal group Quebec Bearing and Power Transmission (QBPT) hosted it’s 60th annual Québec Bearings Golf Tournament at the Royal Bromont golf club.
In all 119 golfers took part in the tournament, which raised over $6,000 for the Opération Enfant Soleil charity. The gala dinner portion saw 178 attendees, with 65 distributor attendees, 41 manufacturer attendees, 30 agent attendees, and 42 others.
“There have been a few years when the event could not take place, so it has been around longer than 60 years, an amazing feat, I think you will be hard pressed to find an industry that can match this,” said Lars Ruuth, SKF. “Competitors and partners in manufacturing and distribution got together to celebrate the camaraderie of the bearing and power transmission industry over a day on the golf course and a gala dinner.”
