Good Morning Everyone,

I met with the Derek Harmon Scholarship Committee last night and have some important dates for you to put in your calenders. The golf event will be held on Saturday, April 26. Registration will begin at 11:00 am with a 12:00 noon shotgun start. The turf club will be responsible for the bag drop. This means that everyone participating in the event should arrive early to help out.

The scholarship applications will be posted around the time everyone returns from Christmas break. I will send out an email once they are posted. Applications will be due on Thursday, April 10I need to ask where they need to be turned in at. The scholarship recipients will be announced after the golf event during the awards ceremony.

The scholarship is only for undergraduate students that are attending ISU and are enrolled in the turfgrass program. After speaking with the committee last night, everyone in the program is encouraged to apply. For some of you who feel your GPA is not as high as other students, do not keep this from preventing you from applying. The GPA section does not weigh very much. They are looking for students who are dedicated to Iowa State and the Turfgrass Program.


I will discuss the event in further detail at future turf club meetings. For now, I just wanted everyone to know the dates and times. If any of you have any questions and/or comments about the outing, feel free to contact me at anytime.

Thanks,

Dan
