Letter from Jeff Baudry, Milwaukee County

Thank you for being a part of the US Bank Championship PGA Tour Golf Tournament in Milwaukee, WI. Your NiteLite Floating Green was a huge success at our Milwaukee County Parks Brown Deer Golf course. Your floating green at this tournament earned Milwaukee County Parks nearly $9,000 dollars.

As the Marketing Director for the County Parks, I am constantly working on fundraising efforts that will benefit our park system. Never before have I had such success and so much fun, without having to beg corporate business partners for sponsorship dollars.

People, young and old, male and female, lined up to for a chance to stick the ball on the floating green. Dan Croak, the US Bank Tournament Director, was delighted with the amount of traffic and excitement that surrounded the NiteLite Floating green area. Even Best Buy Company, with their semi trailer studio housing the latest video games, gadgets and 3-D computer modules could not compete with the old fashion interactive challenge of hitting a golf ball on the green at 120 yards away.

My only regret is that, except for the first night at the Pro Am golfer's party, we did not have more opportunity to showcase what your idea excels at - nighttime golf with illuminated balls and a lit-up green. It looked great and was a perfect backdrop to introduce the concept to the tournament. Had we been more prepared for all the successful participation and not run out of lit balls, or at least have been more effective in retrieving them, we could have easily cleared another $2,000 the first night.

We look forward to continuing our relationship with CN is Believing and with the proper marketing efforts, envision your presence at next year's PGA Tournament to be an even bigger success.
