Message From the mta president

Outside Services

Sometimes the struggle might seem a bit too much for you and your team to handle. It is mid-summer, the grass is growing fast, and the weeds that slipped past the pre-emerge are growing even faster! The spray rig is down, and the rough unit is running hot. What to do???

Work to do your best with what you can.

Maybe take a minute to reach out to a turf maintenance contractor or our local equipment vendors for help. These turf professionals can help when we have tasks that are more than we can handle during our busy seasons. Also, keep in mind that many of our turf product vendors have services such as spreader trailers and applicator trucks that can help with large applications. Their services can also help in times that we may be short staffed or if a position is vacant on our teams.

I hope everyone enjoyed the Yard Dawg classic this summer and look forward to seeing many of you at the next MTA event.

It has been a pleasure to help serve the MTA this year and it is my hope that we all continue to attain normalcy in our respected fields. Have a great fall as it is right around the corner.

Alan Sullivan
