FROM THE PRESIDENT Bob Hogan The Official Publication of the Tennessee Turfgrass Association and the Tennessee Valley Sports Turf Managers Association
Planting Time
Tennessee Turfgrass is the official publication of The Tennessee Turfgrass Association 400 Franklin Road Franklin, Tennessee 37069 (615) 591-8286 tnturfgrassassn@aol.com www.TTAonline.org
in Tennessee hope you will enjoy this issue of our annual Membership Directory & Resource Guide. Leading Edge Communications, our publisher, once again has done an excellent job. Please note the changes to the front cover. It is the Official Publication of the Tennessee Turfgrass Association, the Tennessee Valley Sports Turf Managers Association (TVS TMA) and the Tennessee Golf Course Superintendents Association (TGCSA). In this issue, you will find the membership roster of both the TTA and the TVSTMA. We will include the TGCSA in our next membership directory. A list of vendors is also included, along with many of their advertisements that support the TTA and this magazine throughout the year. This issue is jam-packed with names, phone numbers, event dates and even a copy of the bylaws. If we can make our magazine better, please let us know how. If you would like to write an article of interest, please let us know. We, the board of directors and scholarship committee, need your help. We have scholarship funds available, but no applicants to receive them. This summer, while you are visiting family and friends, will be an excellent time to pass the word around. In this issue, you will find an application for the Ernest Hardison Memorial Scholarship. You can also go online at www.tta online.org for a copy of this

application and the Legacy Scholarship. Please take a look at each of these scholarships and help us help the future of our industry. Thanks, Shelia, for keeping our website looking great. This is a note to all board and committee members. Due to the high cost of travel, we may set up a conference call for our summer meeting and not travel to Nashville. I know this is a board matter, but I wanted the membership to know that we will always do our best to keep the cost of all meetings to a minimum. Make sure you set your calendars for January 11–13, 2009, for next year's annual TTA Conference and Trade Show to see the changes. Jeremiah 17:8 encourages each of us to be like a tree planted by the waters. So I encourage each of us to be tree planters. However, Kenny Perry may disagree. In closing, we should encourage everyone involved in our industry to get on board and become part of TTA. We have something great to offer. We offer to our members a means to become better individuals, more professional and highly educated in the turfgrass industry. This year, we are going to invite everyone in the turfgrass industry to travel our road. Please help us get the word out. I promise that the board of directors will do our part. Bob Hogan TTA President

FROM THE TVSTMA Stephen Callis
Hello, TVSTMA members! am writing this message to you one day after our first meeting of the year. Our West TN Field Day in Jackson was great. We had a good crowd of some 35 sports-turf managers and vendors. Dr. Totten, Mr. Belles and Dr. Stewart brought excellent presentations to the group, and Kenny Franks and his staff were gracious hosts. By the time you read this letter, we will already have had our Upper East TN Field Day at the University of Tennessee. I am sure that meeting will be a success, also. Congratulations to Chris Crockett, who is the newest TVSTMA member to become a Certified Sports Field Manager. I believe that brings the total to five in the state who are CSFMs. Anyone who is interested in an information packet on becoming a CSFM, just let me know. I want to make a challenge to all members of TVSTMA. After you've read the newest issue of the TTA magazine or the STMA magazine, pass it along to someone that you know who doesn't receive it. We all know turf managers in neighboring cities and towns, as well as high school coaches and parents whose children are competing in sports, who take an interest in having safe, attractive and playable fields. These people may not know who or what the TVSTMA is or that it even exists. Anything we can do to promote this organization and get more turf managers involved, the better this organization will be able to serve its members. With that being said I want anyone who has any suggestion or criticisms on things related to the TVSTMA, please feel free to give me a call at 888-224-6426 or email me at stephen@thehogancompany.us. Thank you for your attention in reading this, and I hope to see you at our next meeting.
I

he Tennessee Valley Sports Turf Managers Association (TVSTMA) is a group of people located throughout Northern Alabama, Southern Kentucky and Tennessee. This group consists of groundskeepers, park and recreation directors, turfgrass managers, maintenance personnel, commercial members and anyone interested in turfgrass and the ability to make fields playable and safe. The TVSTMA is the local chapter of the Sports Turf Managers Association (STMA), which is a national organization. The TVSTMA is a non-profit organization that, through the use of educational and on-field seminars, allows members to receive knowledge regarding turfgrass and any subjects that are related to athletics. The TVSTMA welcomes any person who wants to gain knowledge about athletic fields and how to manage them to make them safe and playable. The TVSTMA was formed in 1997 through a collective effort of professional people who had a desire to increase the knowledge base about sports fields. Through this organization, the TVSTMA chapter was formed, and thus, the chapter became recognized on the national level. This chapter has grown from 35 members to over 100 members as of 2007. With an increasing presence in the communities located throughout the tri-state area, and in conjunction with the Tennessee Turfgrass Association, the TVSTMA is a growing chapter. We would like to encourage all members to stay actively involved in the field and educational seminars.
