Welcome
to
the Heart of America Golf Course Superintendents Association website.
We are a Kansas City area
chapter of the Golf Course Superintendents
Association of America, organized in 1933.
Our Mission
is to promote the welfare of the game of golf, the science and art of
golf course management, the organizational and business effectiveness of the
profession, the professional image
and well-being of individual members,
and to unite golf course superintendents in the greater Kansa City area.
We Provide
meetings, education and special events for golf course superintendents
and others affiliated with the golf maintenance business. One of our major
activities is to host an annual scholarship and research tournament to raise
funds to support our charitable activities, including providing scholarships
to turfgrass students and funding turfgrass research at land-grant
universities.
A
Golf Course Superintendent is
one who is entrusted with the management and operation of the tract of land
defined as a golf course, including involvement in construction and
maintenance of golf courses and related equipment. Evolution of a Golf Course Superintendent: Click Here
