Despite a brief rain delay after 9 holes, we had a great time @URidgeGolf yesterday for our June golf event. Phil Davidson and his staff had the course in terrific condition as always. Thanks to all who made the trip!

The @USGA honors @ErinHillsGolf’s @ZReineking with EJ Marshall Platter for job well done preparing the course for @USWomensOpen.

Zach Reineking (@ZReineking), is the director of course maintenance at Erin Hills Golf Course in Erin, Wis. The 22-year GCSAA member will be hosting the @USWomensOpen next week while also celebrating his 20th year at Erin Hills. Hear from him coming up soon on @SiriusXMPGATOUR’s…

The third time was the charm! With a score of 10-6, the WGCSA finally conquered our rivals @MnGCSA on a chilly day at La Crosse CC, & the prestigious cup cutter trophy will be ours for at least the next year. Thanks to all who made this edition of the Border Battle a great one.

On this Friday night, we take a look back 📸 at the WPGA @WGCSA @PremierGolfCars Super-Pro on Wednesday. It was another great day with a great group of attendees. Plenty of camaraderie and laughs were had throughout the chilly day. It is always fun to see some of the spots…

The only thing better than yesterday's sold-out Super/Pro event was the roar heard after Aaron Hansen's ace! Thanks to everyone who came out to the River Club of Mequon and especially to host superintendent Kyle Dawson and his crew for the great early season conditions.

Today, we have the privilege of hosting the state career development event for nursery and landscape. As part of the curriculum, the 12 teams present studied our BMP manual, and we hope that there are a few future superintendents in the group!

We're back at X-Golf at American Family Field to watch the Brewers take on the Tigers. Tailgating indoors while playing golf sure beats battling the cold wind!

We have nearly 40 equipment managers at Hawks Landing Golf Club today for our hydraulics seminar. It's great to see this group that it so vital to their courses continue to grow!

Nevermind the heavy snow falling outside--it's nice and cozy inside South Hills Golf & CC for our Spring (?) Business and Educational Meeting. We have a tremendous turnout in spite of the less than ideal weather.

John Niemiec, 39-year equipment manager at Wisconsin's Westmoor Country Club, is making efforts to bring more people into the industry through his work with a youth robotics club, producing great results. Hear from him today on @SiriusXMPGATOUR ’s “Katrek & Maginnes on Tap.”

The weather is bitterly cold outside, but the education is hot, hot, hot at today's Assistant Superintendent's Seminar that has nearly 90 attendees.
