Give water a break tiftuf bermudagrass is the new drought-tolerance superstar.

The newest edition in the “Tif” (Tifton) series of bermudagrasses to originate from the renowned University of Georgia turfgrass breeding program, TifTuf promises to be a true game-changer in stellar yet environmentally friendly performance. Providing unbeatable drought tolerance, it uses 38% less water than Tifway 419, and it is significantly more drought resistant than all other bermudagrasses.

In addition to its incredible drought tolerance, TifTuf provides excellent cold tolerance (equal to Latitude 36 at Kansas State University), fast spring green-up, excellent fall color retention and superior wear and traffic tolerance. In the 2015 NTEP trials, TifTuf was the highest-ranked cultivar in North Carolina, Alabama and Mississippi, and across all 17 locations overall, it was the highestranked, commercially available cultivar.

TifTuf will not only pay for itself in water savings, but more importantly, it will create eco-gentle lawns for the future. An astounding breakthrough in sustainability, it will soon become the ultimate musthave grass for home and property owners who want to take a break from water use.

President’s Message

What an exciting year

in the Maryland Turfgrass Industry!

N

ever in all my years in the business do I recall so much rain which has lead to more disease issues than normal. If you missed the University of Maryland Summer Field Day on July 18, 2018, you missed a fabulous opportunity to not only learn the latest treatment and ID of turf diseases but also the opportunity to talk with others having the same issues as you.

Working with the University we have taken our 1 day MD Pesticide and MD

MTC Turf News

Fertilizer Applicator License recertification to the Eastern Shore with a class in Easton on August 22.

But the real excitement is that working with the University we are bringing the MD Turfgrass Conference and Trade Show back to MD. It will be December 11, 2018 at the Turf Valley Resort in Ellicott City. As usual, recertification will be available at the conference too.

M.A.T.E. was great but just did not work for our members. Vendor and

Sponsorship information is found in this issue and more information will be coming soon to our web page.

Remember discounts are available at all our functions for MTC members.

Meanwhile, do not take the pontoons off your mowers yet.

From the MTC Executive Director

Join in the Triumphant Return as the MTC & University of MD bring The Maryland Turfgrass Conference and Trade Show back to Maryland!!

The concept of combining the efforts of the MTC, VTC, Univ. of MD, and VPI was an excellent idea as far as providing a A++ Educational Program in the form of M.A.T.E. However, after 3 years it became obvious that we were not able to provide what our MD Turfgrass Professionals needed always holding the conference in VA, and facilities just are not available at a reasonable cost in MD to rotate the program between the States. Therefore, we are bringing the MTC / Univ. of MD Turfgrass Conference and Trade-Show back to Maryland.

For our triumphant return, we have made arrangements to have the 2018 MTC Conference at the Turf Valley Resort and Spa, Ellicott City, on Tuesday December 11.

While we are limited to table top displays this year, we are INVITING YOU to be a part of this inaugural event as a Vendor or a Sponsor.

Booths will be 10' x 10' with a 8 foot table and 2 chairs. Electric / WiFi is also provided. Each booth also includes 4 name badges.

Additional badges are available for $20 each. Please list names for badges on a separate page of paper.

Vendors: Booth Cost:

Single Booth............................. $500

Double Booth....................................$950

Triple Booth.......................................... $1,400

Sponsors: While being a Vendor and exhibiting will help everyone become familiar with your company, you may also want more visibility and/or would like to SPONSOR one or more of the educational rooms, lunch, morning coffee & pastries, or perhaps just a benefactor to help offset the cost of the conference and raise more money to promote quality turfgrass and the University of Maryland Turfgrass Programs.

Sponsorship Opportunities include:

Coffee & Sweets.............................................................. $500 Break-Out (4 available).................................................... $500 Lunch (5 available)....................................................... $1,000 Exposition Hall (Trade Show)........................................ $1,500

General Session........................................................................... $1,250 AV Equipment and Screens............................................................. $750 Friend of the University Programs................................................... $300
