AGSA DISTINGUISHED SERVICE AWARD

In the year 2000 the AGSA Board of Directors formed a committee to develop a program that will promote the AGSA and recognize Golf Superintendents (AGSA members) that excel at their profession.

 

The committee developed this program with equality in mind.  The focus was to ensure every qualified class 'A' AGSA member has equal opportunity to achieve this recognition.
