Exciting things are happening at the AFRH and the National Mall⛳️ Have you registered for National Golf Day yet? Make sure you sign up before 4/17 and help advocate for the game we love. In recent years, National Golf Day has brought 200+ golf industry leaders to Washington, D.C. and generated 200+ meetings with members of Congress, ensuring the voice of golf is heard on issues like turfgrass research, water policy, and environmental stewardship. Let’s keep the momentum going! @GCSAA Register today 👇 golfcoalition.org/nationalgolfday

Such a cool concept! 🔥 The Centennial Mosaic is an awesome way to celebrate GCSAA’s 100 years. Can’t attend the show this year? No problem—this is your chance to still be part of the Centennial celebration.

Reviews like this are what keep me motivated to host more @TheFirstGreen field trips. Taking a little extra time out of my day to connect today’s youth with the golf industry and provide hands-on learning experiences they may not otherwise have is 💯 % worth it! @GCSAA @MidAtlGCSAA

Time flys when you’re having fun! What a memory! As we get ready to host another @TheFirstGreen field trip on Oct.23rd. It’s going on 9 years that we have been hosting @CCPSk12 for #STEAM learning field trips. With an average of 3-4 field trips per year that’s well over 2,000 students we have introduced to the game of golf, @GCSAA , and the golf course management profession!!! We couldn’t do it without the support of the @MidAtlGCSAA

@turfmonkeyboy @LBKCR What a grueling week it’s been keeping the @GCSAA sand sculpture in pristine conditions at all times for @GCSAACEO as well as the @FGCSA members! Now has anyone seen @GCSAA_SouthAtl he said he would be right back? Thanks for the hospitality this week #ONWARD

8 years ago I hosted a @TheFirstGreen 5th grade field trip just days before my wedding and as a thank you the teachers had their students write marriage advice letters for the newlyweds! Well today that same teacher was back for another field trip with with a different grade and I was able to show her how much those letters meant to me! @GCSAA

What a perfect day for another @TheFirstGreen field trip! Today’s 4th grade field trip consisted of 120 students who were eager to learn how @GCSAA superintendents use #STEAM to manage a golf course! A big shoutout to all my @MidAtlGCSAA volunteers and to @TurfTechGuy for the FG shirts!

Hosting the Assistants of the @MidAtlGCSAA at the @Nationals game! @JTurnour has the field lookin’ 💯! #DCisDeereCountry 💚💛

Now that the @Rounds4Research auction is open lets do our part to help spread the word! Check to see if your state or community has a dedicated golf group on social media and be sure to spread the word. All it takes is one post to turn social media followers into potential bidders! @GCSAA

While @speedyjones89 might not be able to make it to National Golf Day this year we really appreciate him still wanting to help! The golfers at the Armed Forces Retirement Home are going to be thrilled with new flagsticks and cups! Thanks for the Saturday delivery. @GCSAA @MidAtlGCSAA #NGD25
