St. Charles, IL — The Third Annual Jeffrey Bullock Memorial Golf Tournament was another successful event that celebrated the memory of a Bison Gear leader and participation by a record number of sponsors led to a very successful fund raiser for BisonCares, the charitable arm of Bison Gear & Engineering Corp. This year’s event was held at Mill Creek Golf Club in Geneva, IL, and over 100 employees and friends of Bison Gear participated in the afternoon and evening activities.
The inaugural Jeffrey Bullock Memorial Golf Tournament 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.
