 St. Charles, IL
- July 14, 2008 - BisonCares, the charitable
arm of Bison Gear &

held Friday, August 22, 2008, at Mill Creek Golf Club in Geneva, IL.

The inaugural
Jeffrey Bullock Memorial Golf Tournament, with 140 participants, was
held in 2006, one year after his untimely passing at age
35. Starting with working summers during high school, Jeff Bullock spent
his entire career at Bison Gear & Engineering Corp. He was
instrumental in establishing Bison's entry into electric motor production
and was an advocate for the company's Lean Manufacturing implementation.
As Executive Vice President, he was responsible for engineering, sales
and marketing, administration and human resources at Bison and was a key
driver in helping the company set record sales levels during his tenure.
"The
Bullock family welcomes one and all at this worthwhile event in Jeff's
memory," said Ron Bullock, Chairman of Bison Gear. "We look
forward to visiting with you, renewing relationships and helping
charitable causes in our community."
Proceeds
from the event go to BisonCares and
participation is not limited just to those in the power transmission
and motion control field with connections to Bison Gear. A limited number
of sponsorship opportunities are available, as well as the opportunity
for dinner-only participation. Registration for the event is available
through the BisonCares.com web site.
