September 12, 2006 • JLG Industries, Inc., McConnellsburg, Pa., and the Long Drivers of America (LDA) have announced that JLG will again be a primary sponsor of the RE/MAX World Long Drive Championship, the premier event in power golf. The 2006 RE/MAX WLDC, which carries a $500,000 purse and awards world titles to long-drive specialists in four divisions, takes place Oct. 24-28 at The Palms GC in Mesquite, Nev. A 90-minute highlights package from the event debuts on ESPN on Christmas Eve.

 

“We welcome back JLG as a marketing partner,” said Art Sellinger, LDA's chief executive officer. “Having access to JLG products, including Ultra Boom lifts that reach up to 135 feet in the air, helps immeasurably with the technical aspects of our RE/MAX WLDC highlights package on ESPN, especially in regard to creating unique camera angles and aerial positions.”
