Dear ESAGCS Members,
The ESAGCS Board of Directors has been working hard to reserve great facilities and speakers for our upcoming 2025 Schedule. We appreciate the continued support from our vendors, members, as well as the golf courses that will be hosting us this year!
I am humbled to serve as your next President of the ESAGCS after serving the last 10 years as a director on the board. The members of our association are of the utmost importance to my fellow Board members and myself. We are here to serve you, so please do not hesitate to reach out with any questions or needs. I encourage those of you who have an interest in serving your fellow members to consider volunteering for the Board. It is a very rewarding and valuable experience. The Board of Directors and I will be meeting periodically to identify new initiatives that will build onto our established core values, social events, scholarship grants, charitable donations, research grants and the amazing annual educational conference that our association is so well known for.
I would like to extend a huge thank you to Derek Haley and John Kotoski for their efforts in ensuring that ESAGCS is in great financial shape for years to come. As a result, the ESAGCS Board of Directors has decided not to implement any additional dues increases for the 2025 season.
We encourage all members to mark your calendars and sign up early for this season’s meetings, as our participation is key to making these events a success. We have a fantastic happy hour kickoff event that will be held at the Big Oyster Brewery in Milford, DE on March 25th. We have the golf simulator available for additional fun and entertainment during this event. This event is made possible by the support and generosity of our valued 2025 Eagle Sponsors.
We are very excited to announce that this year’s Member/Guest will be held at the beautiful Bayside Resort Golf Club in Selbyville, DE! This will be a special day, so invite your favorite colleague, friend or family member and join us for this premier event. We would also like to thank Ken Crider and Brian Rashley for hosting our association and showcasing their phenomenal property.
We encourage all our members to register and sign up for monthly events through the website. www.esagcs.org Everyone will sign up under the “Monthly Meetings” tab on our homepage. The 2025 events schedule and sign-up page will be updated on the website by the end of the week. If you are not able to attend a meeting, please consider sending your assistant or equipment manager. We want to get all areas of our association involved.
If you have any issues or questions regarding registering or payment on our esagcs.org website, please contact our Executive Administrative Secretary, John Bartlett at admin@esagcs.org.
I thank every member and sponsor for their continued support of our organization, and I look forward to seeing everyone at our 2025 meetings!
Ryan Howard
ESAGCS – President
