The highlight of the recent Annual General Meeting for British Columbia Golf, other than simply holding the event at the beautiful Tsawwassen Springs facility, was definitely the morning seminar and the presentations made by the distinguished guest speakers.
British Columbia Golf Executive Director Kris Jonasson assembled a very impressive lineup that included USGA agronomist Larry Gilhuly, whose talk was entitled 'Sustainability...And The Real Story of The U.S. Open at Chambers Bay', Southern California Golf Association Executive Director Kevin Heaney, Western Canada Turfgrass Executive Director Jerry Rousseau and the Honourable Mary Polak, BC's Minister of The Environment.
Each of the presenters talked about the major importance of handling water resources effectively in the maintenance of golf courses as we go forward. There was some very surprising and positive information delivered leaving those in attendance with a real sense of optimism for the future of golf and golf courses.
