Uno de los logros ambientales más notables de Merion ha sido la instalación de un techo verde en su nuevo territorio operaciones complejas. El edificio está en proximidad cercana al hoyo 18, y el techo plano, césped se mezcla con el paisaje circundante del curso. Además de estética mejorada, el techo ahorra el Club de Golf de Merion aproximadamente $3.000 por año en calefacción y refrigeración de los costos. Otro beneficio ha sido la motivación personal y orgullo de miembros. El techo se ha convertido en una parada regular en tours de invitado.
"Merion Golf Club ha trabajado duro para cumplir con los criterios establecidos por Audubon International para la certificación como un santuario de la cooperativa, y millones de televidentes en sintonía desde todo el mundo se llega a ver jugar en un curso que demuestra la gestión ambientalmente consciente prácticas pueden ir mano a mano con una élite jugando en superficie," dijo Joellen Lampman, Director asociado de programas ambientales de Audubon International. "Si ser reciclado agua para equipos de lavado, instalar un techo verde, protección de 20 acres de humedales o educar a los jugadores sobre la importancia de las áreas naturales, ellos están ayudando a proteger la integridad ecológica de los ecosistemas terrestres y acuáticos de la comunidad así como asegurar su futuro económico a largo plazo."

In honor of the College’s Centennial, the Golf Outing will take a slightly different form this year. For the first time in several years, the Golf Outing returns to Cog Hill, allowing alumni to shoot on one of the club’s several championship golf courses, including Dubsdread, home of the Western Open.
In addition, the golf outing will end with an evening dinner, and trophies will be awarded.
There will be a shotgun start, so that all golfers will be able to finish and have dinner at the same time. Tee times will begin at 1 p.m. with a shotgun start.
Dr. King and Drs. Don Doyle, ’78; and Charles DiFranco, Loyola ’81, compose the Golf Outing Committee.
The fun activity also has proven to be a networking opportunity, as more alumni from Loyola, Northwestern, and other dental schools have attended in recent years.
Alumni who belong to special anniversary classes in 2013 or 2014, those classes whose graduation year ended in a “3,” “4,” “8,” or “9”, are encouraged to get together at the Golf Outing as part of their Reunion plans.
The price for golf, a golf cart, and the dinner is $95. If requesting to shoot Dubsdread, the price is $195. For non-golfers wishing to attend, the price for the dinner alone is $40.
Prizes also are given for golfing prowess and predictions.

Corey Sticco is the son of the golf course’s superintendent Tim Sticco, which gives this tournament special meaning for all of the employees at Shula’s. Corey has been receiving treatment from St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital for the last ten years.
Shula’s Golf Club is currently looking for a number of tournament sponsors to help raise money for this noble cause. Through the sponsorship, companies are able to put marketing dollars into a noble cause and support the lifesaving work of St. Jude. Sponsorships vary in size and include a number of benefits for each individual sponsor. “This event has a special meaning to all of us here at Shula’s…I am asking for your support to help us raise money for this wonderful cause. Thank you in advance for your help,” said Kenny Fill, Director of Golf at Shula’s Golf Club. Kenny takes great pride in organizing this event each year.
In 1962 when St. Jude first opened, only 4 percent of children suffering from acute lymphoblastic leukemia lived to see adulthood. Today, thanks to the research performed at St. Jude, this number has reached an astounding 94 percent!
On behalf of Shula’s Golf Club and St. Jude Children’s Hospital, we ask you to join us in celebrating life and the hope that one day 100 percent of the children diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia enjoy long healthy lives. If you are interested in becoming a sponsor, or would like more information, contact Kenny Fill, Director of Golf at 305.820.8170 or by email at Kenny.fill@donshulahotel.com.

Founded in 1936, Drift Bridge Group has been a Volkswagen retailer since the early 70s. With the launch of the Volkswagen Golf – the latest evolution of a modern classic and winner of World Car of the Year 2013 – Drift Bridge undertook an exciting project to mark the occasion.
“The Mk7 is a game changer,” explains Paul Baker, Sales Manager at Drift Bridge Volkswagen. “We knew we had to do something remarkable to celebrate its launch this year, so we teamed up with Creative FX, who we’ve worked closely with on previous wrapping projects and decided to create an exciting chrome wrapped version of the Golf, and film the entire process.”
The finished video shows the intricate process involved heating and stretching the specially manufactured chrome over the curves of the Volkswagen to create a flawless finish. “People are fascinated with finding new ways to personalise their cars and vinyl wrapping offers the possibility to instantly transform the look of a vehicle without the price tag of a new vehicle,” explains Sean Davis, Managing Director at Creative FX. “With chrome wrapping such a popular trend, it’s little wonder the YouTube video has racked up so many hits in just a couple of weeks.”
Whilst the European automotive market has experienced a drastic drop in demand over the past couple of years (car sales fell to a 19-year low), the UK is the only major market to see an expansion, with a 10.3pc rise in new car registrations in 2012, according to European Automobile Manufacturer’s Association. But Baker believes its not enough for the retailers to sit still: “As European manufacturers react to the market by producing ever more fuel-efficient, cost-saving, economical cars, franchisers need to respond with an equal level of innovation.”
Davis agrees: “Thinking outside the box, by collaborating with other businesses is the best way to attract new customers. There are so many possibilities with wrapping and you can’t help but stop and stare at a chrome vehicle.”
On display at the Drift Bridge showroom in Epsom, Surrey, the chromed Golf is a arresting feature in the showroom, which has been newly refurbished as part of Volkswagen’s modular design concept rolling out across its retail network. Baker says whether you love it or hate it, the wrap is already attracting quite some interest. “The showroom is located on a busy corner so you can’t miss the striking window display. The chrome emphasises the Volkswagen’s lightweight, sporty new model and it is certainly turning heads!”
