Our Milwaukee Member of the Month for August 2026 is Mark Rush of ELRUS Aggregate Systems!

ELRUS joined the Idaho AGC earlier this year, and Mark wasted no time getting involved. As an Eastern Idaho member, he supported both our Eastern Idaho Golf Tournament in Pocatello and our Summer Outing Golf Tournament at Tamarack by hosting sponsor holes—and bringing along a keg for golfers to enjoy throughout the day. Unsurprisingly, his stops were a hit!

More importantly, Mark brought an upbeat attitude, a welcoming presence, and plenty of energy to both events. His enthusiasm helped create a memorable experience for our golfers and added to the fun, friendly atmosphere that makes these tournaments so special.
