Changing Preachers This

Bob McCurdy

issue of Tennessee Turfgrass is our annual membership directory, which you should be able to use for obtaining up-to-date information about members of our association. It is a great tool for keeping track of those who may have changed jobs or locations and for finding contact information for the vendors who are so valuable to the turf industry. At the church I attend, we also occasionally publish a membership guide. I’ve noticed that the subject of “The Directory” usually comes up shortly before a new pastor arrives. I doubt that the soon-to-be-moving preacher is anxious to take with him a reminder of problems from the past, so I’m pretty certain that the new list is for the benefit of the incoming parson. “The Directory” includes church history, pastors of the past and a list of current leadership. The most popular feature, though, is always the accumulation of photographs of church members and their families. They are always in color, and the photographer takes great pains to help members show our most photogenic features, as well as to minimize those features of which we are not so proud. Names of the members are printed beneath the photograph. I’ve become amused by the fact that so many of those who are listed in “The Directory” only show up at church to have their picture taken. I often suspect that this is an attempt to maintain membership and the privileges that go along with it. As you browse through this 2013 Resource Guide, consider the names listed. Do you see these people at events such as the UT Field Day, at the TTA conference or at any of the professional associations that you attend? What about your own profile? Will others recognize you by your involvement in our association, or are you like some of our church members who only want to be recognized and not involved? When was the last time you attended an industry event, invited a friend to become a member of TTA or simply made a call to one of our fellow members to check on how things were going? Our association needs all of us to become engaged as professional turfgrass managers. Don’t wait until it’s time to change preachers.

From the TVST M A President

Fellow Members are

TVSTMA’s Best Membership Benefit! What

a spring! Warm weather sure took its slow time in arriving and membership in TVSTMA paid significant dividends for me this spring. Being able to consult with other professionals in our association makes TVSTMA worth its weight in gold. Every year presents different challenges in growing turfgrass and members with experience and different views provide helpful insight when challenges arrive. This past spring created of the worst growing environments for bermudagrass as cool, wet weather does not provide conducive conditions for bermudagrass to thrive. Combine that with continuous play starting in March, and we had a real challenge in providing quality turfgrass surfaces for our athletes. My biggest asset was the ability to call my fellow TVSTMA members to ask for advice. I’m glad for the friends and professionals I know in TVSTMA. If you know of a sports turf manager who is not a member, please invite him or her to our organization. I need their advice. Maybe someday I can pass the knowledge I gained from my fellow TVSTMA members to someone else.

News from the

MTGCSA On

the morning of May 13, it was 36 degrees at our golf course in Brentwood, TN! That’s 20 degrees below normal for Middle Tennessee. Who says we don’t have to deal with all kinds of variables in the turf industry?! Seems like we just finished the Tennessee Turfgrass Association conference, and now it’s summer. Where does the time go? It seems like just yesterday that I was a college student working for the summer at a course in Brevard, NC. Many of you are looking forward to summer, and some of you are dreading it. I’ll let you guess whether it’s the bentgrass growers or the ultradwarf growers! Here in Middle Tennessee, we kicked of our meeting schedule at Hillwood Country Club in April. Thanks go to David Robertson and the fine people at Hillwood for hosting our meeting. We had over 60 people in attendance to hear Dr. Alan Windham and Dr. Jeff Higgins give their presentations. Our May meeting was at WillowBrook Golf Club in Manchester, with Dr. Scott McElroy giving the presentation. Thank you to superintendent Ben Harbin and his staff in hosting us. Our MTGSA membership numbers this year are very strong, and so far we have good participation. Along those lines, no matter what part of the state you live in, please consider hosting a meeting, as it is a very difficult task each year to find meeting sites. Take the opportunity to show off your operation. All you have to do is ask! That brings me to another topic, which is why belong at all? Did you ever think whether the time and investment are worth it? Are GCSAA, TGCSAA or TTA memberships worth it? What do I get from my membership?

Well, first it is always a good idea to belong to one’s professional association. Why? Our professional associations — local, state and national — are constantly working for the betterment of our profession. Yes, I said profession! If you look at your “job” as just a job, then you probably don’t belong to or participate in your associations. Our associations put on our local and national tradeshow; they put out timely articles in their respective publications; and they work with government to ensure that we still have the products we need to do our jobs. They support our university research, they promote us as professionals and mostly, for me, they give me an avenue to interact with other industry professionals. I learn more about our profession through meetings and conferences than I ever did in school. Lastly, if you are going to belong and attend meetings, try to play golf if it is offered at the host site. The host superintendent of the meeting goes to great lengths to “show off ” what he or she is doing at that facility. It’s not very respectful if we don’t go out and take a look. I hope each of you has a great year!
