Paul L. Carter
Provide Results P
ersonally, I have been a member of the Tennessee Turfgrass Association since I moved from Huntsville to be Paul Hood’s assistant at Willow Creek Golf Club in Knoxville in 1996. Since I became a member of the TTA board of directors in 2008, I have often questioned, “What are the benefits of being a member of TTA?” The longer I have been associated with the TTA, the more I realize that the benefits of membership are plentiful and all around us. We are blessed to have an Association that spans the entire breadth of this great state. Our membership represents golf course superintendents, sports field managers, lawn care operators, sod growers, parks and recreation supervisors, industry suppliers and researchers/professors, to name a few, with many of them being regionally and nationally known and well respected for their expertise. We are fortunate to have this great magazine compiled and published by Leading Edge Communications, normally chocked full of articles pertaining to all facets of turfgrass management, findings from research projects and valuable information found in the advertisements provided by our vendors and sponsors. This annual Resource Guide provides TTA members with a comprehensive list of fellow TTA members and vendors, along with a listing of board of director members of TTA, TVSTMA and East, Middle and Memphis Area GCSA. Whether you are new to the area and have not met many people yet, or are, let’s say, “well experienced” in the area and need to find the contact information for a fellow member or vendor, then the TTA Resource Guide is a great place to start.
The miss
Now, I know the vast majority of you did not come to read this President’s Letter first before thumbing through the directory to check and see if your name was in here, and I can understand that. But while you were looking for your name, did you notice another name on your same page or somewhere else in the directory that you did not recognize? Did you look for the name of a TTA member that you hadn’t seen in a while, only not to find him or her? Or did you see a new name listed under a neighboring property and realize that you had not met this person or even given him/her a call to touch base? Our Association is only as strong as the bond that our members have with one another. Take the time to reach out to an old friend that you have not spoken to in a while, or a new member in your area, or maybe you know of a new person in your area who would benefit from the current resources that you are enjoying as a member of TTA. We have all probably heard the old saying “Membership has its privileges,” and that is true for TTA members. Whether you use this Resource Guide to meet or reconnect with a fellow member, introduce TTA to someone new or find a vendor that can help supply you with a product or service you need, we should all keep this Resource Guide handy, use it often and be very thankful for all the benefits provided through our membership in the Tennessee Turfgrass Association.

Help Us
Grow! H
opefully, the warm weather is here to stay! I am sure that by now we are all ready to move on from the damage that was done due by winter kill and the extreme temperatures of this winter. TVSTMA was a valuable resource for many of our members, as they were able to lean on one another through the winter weather. When you become a member of TVSTMA, you not only get the TTA magazine, but you will also receive a copy of the STMA magazine. This is just another bonus of being a member of the organization and why we need to continue to grow! Thank you to those who have renewed their memberships, but let’s continue to spread the word about our organization and get people signed up. WE NEED YOUR SUPPORT! There is power in numbers, and that is why we want your help
as we continue to grow the TVSTMA vision. Although we are all busy, I want to go ahead and let you know that we are finalizing a date, time and location of the Field Day for this summer in Middle Tennessee. We will be sending out announcements along with a schedule of what to expect during the day in the upcoming weeks. Please be on the lookout for this, and put it in your calendar. As I stressed in the last letter, we need to continue to grow this organization and make a point to have as many sports turf managers involved as possible so that we can continue to network with one another.

Get
Connected How
many challenges do we all face every year? We face budget cuts, weather, staffing concerns, employee issues and many others throughout our busy season. We all, including myself, get so wrapped up in our day-to-day operations that we lose sight of things going on around us. I would like to challenge you during this time to get connected. I feel it is important to connect with people professionally, in our community and with our families. As a father, and knowing that time is very valuable, I tried to step back and think of something I could do to impact our community and connect with others. I chose to
help lead a local basketball league for K-6th graders. The process included evaluating kids for team placement, and my wife and I coached the 2nd and 3rd grade team. My love of the sport and competition were things I tried to teach along the way, but what I found was that the kids taught me. It usually was not a question about a zone, man-to-man defense or a call by the referee but rather something they were dealing with outside of basketball. Huddle time before and after practice usually had questions and concerns about sick family members, friends and struggles we all face. These were eye-openers for me, to see that life is not all about our day-to-day grind. It was not that I had all the answers; it was about being an example and someone they could talk to. I have learned that being connected to a group in every aspect of our lives will truly be a blessing. It is important to be a part of something bigger than ourselves. It helps give you perspective, either at work or home. Over the last 15 years in our industry, I have met so many great people — people who I believe are great examples, leaders and teachers. Being a part of TTA and MAGCSA has allowed me opportunities to be helped by these individuals, and hopefully I have helped others. So I challenge you to get connected.
