It has been a wonderful and productive year for Golf Course Management in Alberta, and for Olds College. As we come to a predictable end of an exceptionally long growing season (which began in mid-March) that followed a very mild winter, many courses are finishing up their winterization programs with smiles on their faces and money in the bank.

What is the Kwantlen Turf Club? It is a volunteer based, non-profit group of Turf students. Objectives are social, industry connection and fundraising for student attendance to the WCTA Conference.
The inaugural Turf Under Research Field Day, ‘TURF Day’, took place at Olds College’s Prairie Turfgrass Research Centre on August 27th. Lead researcher Katie Dodson, along with Laura Chaves, Jim Ross, Cory Mossing and the rest of the research team, hosted about 75 participants from a wide cross-section of the industry for a full day of research plot tours, displays, educational seminars and a free lunch!
