The golf course and you: a primer

We are just a week away from the 2014 New England Green Section Seminar, which will be held at Andover Country Club. The seminar is an annual event that is presented by the MGA, Golf Course Superintendents Association of New England (GCSANE), and the USGA with the goal of educating superintendents, golf professionals, green committee members, club managers, and club personnel on new topics that have come up in the industry. This seminar can be useful for your average golf geek as well - there is some really interesting information that is presented each year.

This year we are focusing on something that any golfer can relate to - how do all the different parts of a golf course or country club come together to impact your golfing experience? We're talking about issues that affect everyone who steps to the tee - from the championship player to the high handicapper to the 5 round a year golfer. Every part of golf course operation affects you whether you realize it or not! What we as an industry constantly strive toward is making the golfer experience a positive one each time he or she heads out for a round. Especially these days, when people have so many options for leisure time activities, it is imperative that we give you a worthwhile experience - whether you're out shooting 90's or going for the course record.
