MPSE/CAS Golf & Poker Tournament On October 14, over 100 sound editors, mixers, associates and friends bid farewell to summer and enjoyed a lovely sunny afternoon at Angeles National Golf Club for the 10th Annual MPSE and CAS Charity Golf & Poker Tournament which raises funds for MPSE's Ethel Crutcher Scholarship Fund. This is the third year that the CAS has co-sponsored this event with the MPSE. The fund provides mentoring and support for student sound artists. This event also marks the official beginning of the MPSE annual membership drive. Prize squares and Ball Drop balls were available to purchase again this year, giving even those who didn't play in the tournaments an opportunity to walk away winners. The LAFD and their hook & ladder truck, made the Ball Drop a multi-story affair. Potential cash prizes increase with every ball purchase. Closest and furthest from the pin won a percentage of the final pot with the MPSE's Ethel Crutcher Scholarship Fund receiving the remainder. After dinner, MPSE President Tom McCarthy spoke about the tournament's guest of honor and honorary chair, CAS President Mark Ulano. Tom McCarthy declares, "Mark Ulano is an exceptional human being who has brought so much to the art of Sound. He continues to give back to the sound community by being the President of CAS and mentoring individuals who wish to enter the sound industry. Mark's incredible list of credits and wealth of experience is invaluable to our industry." b y K a r o l U r b a n C A S M P S E The final table T H E 2 0 1 8
