TransCore Link Logistics hosted its 20th Annual Conference and Charity Golf Tournament

The sun was shining as members of the transportation industry came out to raise money for Kids Help Phone and other Canadian children’s charities.

Forget everything you thought you knew about industry events! This was a full day jam-packed with networking, knowledge, great food, golfing and of course, supporting children’s charities across Canada. TransCore Link Logistics hosted its 20th Annual Conference and Charity Golf Tournament on Monday, July 16th, in Etobicoke at Markland Wood Private Golf Club.

Link Conference attendees braved the early morning to enjoy complimentary food and listen to talks on the state of the industry. Along with seeing a demo of the new Loadlink, guests had the opportunity to win several prizes like a foursome Blue Jays experience package valued at $1,000, a big screen television and much more. The morning finished with a panel discussion on how cryptocurrency is affecting the transportation industry. Moderator, Mike McCarron kept the discussion light and fun as the audience tuned in to hear the latest Blockchain buzz.

After the conference, Link golfers headed out to the greens for an afternoon of excitement. Not even the threat of rain could stop the fun! Along the course, players had poutine, ice cream and plenty of chances to win great prizes like a Florida golf vacation and plane tickets at various on-course activities.

Golfing concluded and players rushed into the clubhouse for a delicious meal and prize giveaways. With all the enthusiasm in the air, a moment was taken to acknowledge the purpose of the event. Norm Smyth, a representative from Kids Help Phone, took the stage to thank everyone and explain why the foundation is such a necessity to Canadian youth.

“They (Canadian youth) can talk to somebody who is nonjudgmental… anonymously, on whatever forum they want to talk to us on. They’re going to get the help and support that they need and be able to move forward and become vibrant people of society,” said Smyth before he was handed the donation cheque.

Photos from golf and conference can be viewed here and a video of the event can be viewed here.

This event would not have been possible without the tremendous support of generous sponsors. Their support made this year’s event extremely successful.

Major sponsors included C.H. Robinson, Transnet Freight, Manitoulin transport, Riviera Finance, Transplace, Trucking HR Canada, Ansonia Credit Data, Rogers Communications, G. Roch Consultant, TransCredit, Crossdock Systems, Birdseye Solutions, 5K Solutions and Services Inc and AVAAL Technology Solutions.
