Marathon is great for golf tourney

1/27/2013

Congratulations to Marathon Petroleum Co. LLC on its commitment to become the title sponsor of our region’s Ladies Professional Golf Association event (“Marathon replaces Farr at golf tourney,” Jan. 9).

The winners from this great news are the more than 100 children’s charities in our community that have received $7.75 million over the past 28 years from the tournament.

Owens Corning is proud to stand with Marathon, Owens-Illinois Inc., and the LPGA in keeping the spotlight on northwest Ohio. It’s gratifying to know that those of us who call this area home can come together with pride each summer to support something that benefits our community today, and for the long term.
