ATA's new service project, New Beginnings, is officially underway!  ATA members are encouraged to help participate in this new endeavor of ATA.  Many of us have benefited from the gifts of our industry - let's take this opportunity to use our knowledge and expertise to give some troubled teenage boys a baseball field at the Gulf Coast Youth-Reach foster home.  Look for more details below.

 

Also, now is the time to apply for the ATA President's Award of Excellence.  There are four categories for this award:  Sports Complex, Golf Course, Landscape and Sod Farm.  Each winner will be awarded a plaque at the Annual Conference, receive free registration to the Conference and be featured in an issue of our magazine, Turf Times.  The application can be found on our website, www.alaturfgrass.org.  Just remember, we need 10 digital photos of your entry - so get busy taking pictures of your facility!

 

Thank you for your response to our membership survey.  The ATA Board will use this information during our strategic planning session and when planning our future events.  You will notice many changes in our Annual Conference and Tradeshow this October due to your suggestions.

 

Again, thank you for your continued support of the Alabama Turfgrass Association!  We hope to see you at the New Beginnings project work day on June 18th!
