@GCSAACEO 1. Inform more on the difference between normal golf and what we all see on TV. More public behind the scenes access to prepping for a championship

Held a little piece of heaven here on earth this weekend. Colleen and I got to spend time with our new grandson—Stone. Hard to put into words what that does to your heart. Everything comes into focus. So proud of Caite and Gavin. You two are already incredible parents! #Grateful

Couldn’t be happier 🙌

GCSAA Past President R. Scott Woodhead, CGCS Retired, passed away Wednesday, Feb. 11. Woodhead served as GCSAA President in 2000 and was a 43-year GCSAA member. From 2002 to 2017, he served on the GCSAA staff as associate director of member relations. Scott’s commitment to the profession, to our members, and to the values of GCSAA left a lasting impact.

@GCSAACEO @GCSAA @GCSAAConference I loved looking at the old equipment especially irrigation items. But most importantly I learned the year my chapter was born. 1961 for the Ozark Turf Association. Much earlier than I thought. “Digging” up our history is going to be a bigger challenge than I realized.

If you haven’t visited the Centennial Zone, I hope you will. It’s a humbling reminder of our shared purpose & what we've achieved by working together. Please take a Centennial Challenge Coin, and remember John Morley’s words: “no life is self-existent; we depend upon each other.”
English
That’s a wrap. What a week. Grateful to work alongside a @GCSAA team that depends on one another and always steps up to serve each other. Saw it all week with our exhibitors, partners and members. A truly special industry. #GCSAAConference
