First Turf Club meeting September 3, 2013

Turf Club Minutes
Tuesday, September 3rd

Rieman Garden App.

·         Took place at 3:00 this afternoon (9/5)
·         This was be a single product granular app so which took an hour to apply
·         Keep in mind that attendance to these projects counts towards the GCSAA and STMA trips and will help dramatically cut down the cost of the trips.

Turf Bowl and STMA

·         We are trying to get a rough estimate on how many people are planning on going on the trips this year. If you are planning on going or want to find out more contact Spencer.
·         Turf Bowl is February 3-6 this year and will be in Orlando, Florida.
·         STMA is January 22-24 and will be in San Antonio, Texas.
·         Studying for both of these will start up within the next couple of weeks so continue checking your email to find out more info on the study sessions.

Golf Outing

·         September 21st is the date chosen for the fall golf outing this year
·         The three courses mentioned at the meeting were Indian Hills, Veenker, and Honey Creek. If you have any other ideas for the outing let Spencer Nielson know immediately as this outing is already being planned.
·         This year funding will not be provided for the Turf Club members so it will be somewhere around $40 per person. Look for more info to come in the near future.

New Logo

·         We are no longer allowed to use the ISU logo on any of our turf club items.
·         Please turn in new logo ideas to Spencer before next meeting. (9/16)
Scholarships
·         The Trans Mississippi Scholarship deadline is September 14th, It’s easy to apply and easy money.
·         ITI, Iowa GCSAA, and ISTMA Scholarships are coming up soon, the deadline this year is October 31st.

Fundraising

·         We are in need of some good fundraising ideas. The more we can raise the less the trips cost.
·         Any ideas should be submitted to Jeremy Ehlers.
Internship Presentations
·         If you went anywhere for an internship last summer and want to do a presentation during a turf club meeting than let Spencer know ASAP.
