ASM celebrates record numbers at 16th annual golf tournament
The 16th Annual Golf Tournament held at Pinehills Golf Club on July 25 was a great success. The weather cooperated and a record number of golfers turned out to enjoy a spectacular day of golf, award presentations and old fashioned barbeque lunch and dinner.
The day also served as a platform to honor retired Rep. David Flynn of Bridgewater, who was awarded the Legislative Lifetime Achievement Award for his role as the leading advocate for ASM's Prompt Pay Bill (now the Prompt Pay Law).
ASM's 2011 Scholarship winners were also recognized during the dinner portion of the event. Each of this year's winners was presented with a $2,000 Scholarship Award for excellence in academic and civic achievement. Congratulations to the 2011 winners: Nathan Kingston, Nicole Fontes and Nolan Schmidlein.

Ask the Electrician: How do I prepare my commercial building for a disaster?
New England’s notorious weather – from fierce winter storms to summer squalls and fall hurricanes – can leave businesses in the dark.
