But don't be misled...though their name is synonymous with quality fairway signs, their products can be found on the rest of the course and in the clubhouse. For example, the informative signs which direct golfers to the next tee, or perhaps the impressive aluminum / stone entrance sign. In the clubhouse they provide directional, information, and Pro Shop signs. Confirms owner Glenn Moskowy, "Actually today we are even more than just our in-house manufactured products. We have expanded our product lines to include even more. Our accessories lines now include ColorFlex and FlexStake flexible markers, recycled rubber markers, recycled plastic products, and a wide variety of sandstone, granite or aluminum Tee Box markers." To get a full sense of what Wallah has to offer, you should take a tour around their website making sure to look at the great selection of sample signs. Primary Contact: .................. Brian Gibbons Tel: .................................... 800-909-9927 Email: .............. golfsales@wallahsigns.com Website:.................... www.wallahsigns.com Formed in 2001, Garth Beetstra Construction Ltd, based in Canmore, AB is a golf course construction business providing quality construction services to the golf course industry throughout Canada and Europe, owned and operated by Garth Beetstra. Wallah has been manufacturing quality golf, home, commercial and farm signs since 1983 and after twenty-eight years of service in the golf industry their name has become synonymous with quality. Beginning as a company that built only cedar signs, over the years their product lines have expanded. They now produce signs using granite, aluminum, particleboard (medex), plastics and stone. Still it's the cedar signs that Wallah has made its reputation on and they justifiably proud of the workmanship and warranty offered with each unique Wallah sign. Hand crafted using only knot free, kiln dried, Grade A, western red cedar, they are sandblasted to give a three dimensional profile. The sealants and paints used are state of the art for a long lasting high quality appearance.
