Mike Salvio CGCS and staff at Ocean City Golf Club played host to our opening 2013 meeting. We had some great attendance, and while the weather was a bit spotty, Mike and crew had the Seaside course in great shape.
We were proud to open the meeting with a small presentation for our $5000 donation to the Autism Society of America. Scott Badesch, President and COO was on hand to accept our check. A more detailed press release can be found in the "News" section on our site.
Our guest speaker was Bill Brown CGCS and President of Turf Republic. Bill spoke about the resources and tools available in social media and technology that we can use as Superintendents. Bill gave instruction on blogging and showed us how to set up a basic blog. He also demoed and impressive list of apps, tools and even showed off a relatively inexpensive RC helicopter with a 720p camera attached.
After a great lunch we started off the golf season playing a 2 person Florida scramble. The course was in great shape and the bar service was equally good, helping us forget how cold and windy it was outside. Despite the weather some great scores were posted, with the results below.
Thanks to all who made this meeting possible!
