Bernhard & Co. to send 10 GCSAA Class A members to England… FREE!  (posted 8-14-08)
Enter today to win a free trip to England and see how it’s done on the other side of the pond!            

For the third year running, Bernhard and Company, manufacturers of Express Dual and Anglemaster grinders, is sending 10 GCSAA Class A members to the British & International Golf Greenkeepers Association’s (BIGGA) Turf Management Exhibition (BTME), January, 18 - 22, 2009 in Harrogate, England. 

Winners will have the opportunity to attend the conference and exhibition, participate in education seminars, network with greenkeepers from the UK and Europe, and visit golf courses in England.  

Register online at http://www.bernhard.co.uk/gcsaa-registration.0.html or call (888) 474-6348. Deadline for applications is November 14th, 2008. Bernhard and Company will notify the winners by December 5th, 2008.   

Bernhard and Company will cover expenses for airfare, accommodation, conference registration, education seminars and transportation.  

“Every GCSAA member should apply for this unbelievably awesome opportunity to experience what golf course maintenance is like in England and how they conduct their national educational conference in Harrogate.  Once you have experienced the golf course industry in England, it will make you re-evaluate the ways you do things at your own course,” says Chris Gray, Director of Golf Course Operations at the Marvel Golf Club in Benton, Kentucky, a 2008 GCSAA Delegate. 

“Bernhard and Company has opened my eyes to the golf course industry in England and the similar challenges they have to face every day.  There are so many valuable tips that I learned from this trip that have had an immediate impact on the way that I operate my golf course, that I would never have known about if I didn’t make the trip.”  

Register now at http://www.bernhard.co.uk/gcsaa-registration.0.html or call (888) 474-6348.
