good stuff.

Also, if you scroll down below the US Open stuff there is a story about some guy who was in the business of getting rid of geese who drowned while kayaking at Treesdale Country Club just outside of Pittsburgh.

I'm all in favor of you guys reading that blog. The main contributors are all coworkers of mine, and they offer a unique perspective on the events they cover.

I also include links to the latest GCM blog posts in my weekly newsletter -- http://www.gcsaa.org/newsweekly/this_week/epush_prp.asp.

The goal is to give people a look at the golf course maintenance profession from another angle.
