I would like to thank the ATA for this incredible honor! Last week I had the pleasure of spending time listening to different speakers, and learning more about what goes on behind the scenes in the Arkansas Turfgrass industry. I couldn't have had a better start to the semester!

I had a great time this weekend volunteering at the Blessing Golf Club in preparation of the BCI. It was nice to gain some experience and learn what it takes to go into a large golf tournament!
