“The Carolinas GCSA is committed to providing its members the opportunity to excel professionally and enhance the game of golf through responsible turfgrass management”. This is the mission statement of the Carolinas Golf Course Association.
This association was created in 1954. From its web page
LINK. I have learned that it has 1,800 members. It is a combination of superintendents from North and South Carolina and is the largest affiliated chapter of the Golf Course Superintendents Association of America.

One of its major activities is the annual conference and trade market in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. This conference includes many hours of lectures. There are more than 100, according to its web page. I found this very interesting. I truly believe that this profession is young and that there still a lot to learn. The show also has more than a 100,000 square ft of commercial trade, such as golf products, show exhibits and give away totaling $15,000 in value.
The association also has a magazine publication, annual program of regional seminars, meetings to help members network, and a membership directory that it is updated annually.
