NCSTMA Fall Sports Turf Managers' Field Day
Held September 16th, 2008
written by Casey Reynolds
The NCSTMA fall sports turf managers’ field day on September 16th at
Elon University was a huge success! Over 70 sports turf managers from colleges,
high schools, and Parks/Rec facilities were in attendance to meet in fellowship
and discuss athletic field maintenance.
The morning began with snacks and refreshments provided by Dusty Rhodes, member
of Elon University’s Board of Trustees, followed by presentations from NCSU Faculty
and Staff on Weed Control
and Storage, and Overseeding Bermudagrass
Athletic Fields. Representatives from Smith Turf were also in attendance
to discuss Low Budget Equipment Options: Leasing v/s Purchasing. Morning sessions
were followed by lunch, also provided by Dusty Rhodes, and a “press-box” tour of
Elon’s athletic facilities by Larry Rhodes, who oversees all of Elon University’s
athletic fields.
Special thanks to all the attendees, as well as Larry Rhodes for hosting our event.
New member registration at this event has pushed our membership to over 120 members
which is great for our first year! As always, please feel free to contact us with
questions, ideas for seminars, locations, or anything else we can provide to better
serve the sports turf managers of North Carolina.
