Dear ESAGCS Members,
The ESAGCS BOD has been working hard to get many great facilities and speakers on our 2018 schedule. We appreciate the continued support from our vendors, superintendent members, as well as the golf courses that will be hosting us this year! By the time you read this, we will have a new Executive Administrative Secretary to start the meeting schedule in March. Please welcome the new person with open arms.
On behalf of the ESAGCS Board of Directors and myself, we would like to give a sincere thank you to Hope Palmer for 9 years of being passionate and dedicated to our Association. You will truly be missed. Thanks again Hope!!
We encourage our members to mark your calendars and sign up early, as our participation is key to making these events a success. Our annual Turf Conference will again be in Ocean City on November 6-8th and in order to keep things fresh, we have changed to a new venue! The 67th Street Holiday Inn Resort Hotel will be our host for another great lineup of speakers along with golf at Rum Pointe.
We have continued to fine-tune the registration process on our esagcs.org website. We encourage all of our members to register and sign up for monthly events through the website by using the PayPal link. The link will give you the option of signing up and entering your member information as a guest or you can register an account to use for future registration. We are also offering the membership prepay option for yearly dues and monthly events. If you are not able to attend a meeting, please consider sending your assistant. We want to get the future of our association involved.
If your employer can’t or won’t pay for your meeting attendance or membership, PLEASE send me an email or call me. We have many vendors who would be very happy to sponsor you. Your inquiries are confidential. My email is breil@gibsonisland.com and my cell is 410-507-2327.
Lastly, please fill out the new membership application with your dues. This will help us update our member directory.
See you at the 2018 meetings!
William Reil
ESAGCS President
