Oklahoma Municipal
Contractors Association Tee It Up for 23rd Time
The Oklahoma Municipal
Contractors Association (OMCA) hosted their
23rd annual charity golf tournament on Monday,
September 8, at the Twin Hills Golf and Country
Club in Oklahoma City to benefit the J. D. McCarty
Center for children with developmental disabilities.
Thirty-two teams consisting
of 128 golfers participated in this 23rd annual
event.
"While not all of
our invoices are in," said Rick Moore,
OMCA executive director, "we estimate that
we'll make about $40,000 for the McCarty Center
from this year's event."
According to Curt Peters,
director and CEO of the McCarty Center, the
proceeds will go the McCarty Center's Camp ClapHans
summer camp project. "The money will be
divided between the camp's scholarship endowment
fund and the construction fund for phase two
of the camp," said Peters.
Camp ClapHans, named in
memory of Sammy Jack Claphan, will be built
in the southwest corner of the McCarty Center's
80-acre campus on the east side of Norman. Ground
breaking for the camp will be held this fall
with an anticipated opening in the summer of
2010.
The Oklahoma Municipal
Contractors Association is the state's trade
organization that represents contractors who
work on local, state and federal municipal projects.
