As a leading name among home remodelers in Minneapolis, we believe that building beautiful homes goes hand-in-hand with building strong relationships. This philosophy is at the core of everything we do at Lake Country Builders. One of the ways we reinforce our commitment to our team and our industry partners is through events like our annual Appreciation Golf Tournament.

An Event Overview

Held at the beautiful Bent Creek Golf Club in Eden Prairie, our Annual Appreciation Golf Tournament is a really great opportunity to connect with our vendor partners, employees, and industry allies in a fun way! The event takes place in late summer or early fall, just as the weather in Minnesota reaches its best.

It’s our way of saying “thank you” to our vendor partners and employees. The golf tournament allows us to step outside the usual work environment, celebrate our successes over the past year, and strengthen the personal connections that make our company thrive.

The Why

While we have a lot of fun together, at the end of the day this event is about building stronger personal connections. In the custom home-building industry, relationships are everything. By creating a sense of community among our team members and partners, we become a stronger network and everyone benefits!

While the day wasn’t necessarily about winning, we do have to give credit where credit is due. Patrick Jacobson, Jeremy Koch, Nick Solheim, and Drew Engleman took the grand prize this time, but there’s always next year!

Why Hosting Events is Essential for Home Remodelers in Minneapolis

cultivating strong partnerships within the building industry is crucial. Events like these can help!

1. Strengthen Industry Partnerships
   When our designers, architects, interior designers, and vendor partners get to know each other, they work more effectively. This leads to more streamlined processes, better problem-solving, and ultimately, a higher quality of work for our clients.
2. Encourage Open Communication
   Bringing everyone together in a relaxed, social setting encourages open dialogue. Our partners get to learn more about our values, goals, and the way we operate. This naturally helps build trust, which is crucial in an industry where projects often come with their fair share of challenges.
3. Connect With Employes
   Our employees are the backbone of our company. It’s important to show them appreciation beyond the usual day-to-day interactions! Events like the golf tournament give them a chance to unwind, have fun, and feel valued.
4. Create a Positive Brand Image
   Events like this showcase our commitment to building not just homes, but also a strong community. When potential clients and partners see that we prioritize relationships and foster a positive company culture, they’re more likely to trust us with their custom home building and remodeling projects.
