Pac/West was proud to sponsor the Boys & Girls Club of Salem, Marion and Polk Counties' Corporate Shootout in Salem, supporting the 9,300 youth served by the organization. We oversaw the "Chip and Dip" station (trust us, it's harder than it looks!) while enjoying the sunshine and catching up with our community partners.
Thank you to everyone who stopped by, and to Illahe Hills Country Club for being such great hosts. We're already looking forward to next year's event!
