Grounds professionals who have supported PGMS' regional visitation program since they were launched in March 2006 are beginning to realize a return on their investments after just concluding the first dynamic meeting of 2009 in San Diego, Calif. Initiated by then PGMS President Ellen Newell, CGM, at her Arizona State University (ASU) campus, the visitation programs include presentations on grounds operations at an array of facilities plus several hours of classroom lecturing. The San Diego visitation program included an up-close look at the grounds operations of San Diego State University, Balboa Park and the Water Conservation Garden at Cuyamaca College. The program also included classes on management skills, smart controllers, water issues, turf weed and disease issue. "Don Bottger did an excellent job of putting this successful site visit together," said PGMS Executive Directory Tom Shaner.
