Another successful time at the #GCSAAConference. Students attended educational seminars, networked with industry leaders, visited Torrey Pines Golf Course, and competed in the Turf Bowl. Great experience getting to learn more about the turf management industry. Till next year!
Congratulations to Horticulture student Hayden Hawthorne for being awarded the Arkansas Turfgrass Association Outstanding Intern Scholarship. Hawthorne was awarded recently at the 2025 ATA Conference.
Hayden is an extremely hard worker, and this award is well deserved.
I would like to thank the ATA for this incredible honor! Last week I had the pleasure of spending time listening to different speakers, and learning more about what goes on behind the scenes in the Arkansas Turfgrass industry. I couldn't have had a better start to the semester!
Congrats to Hort Freshman Seth Ford for being awarded the Arkansas Turfgrass Association Outstanding Incoming Turf Student Scholarship. Ford was awarded last week at the 2025 ATA Conference.
We are proud of your hard work and look forward to seeing what you accomplish next!
We were fortunate enough to be able to give out 2 scholarships this year. The first one was to Seth Ford for “Incoming Freshman” and then to Hayden Hawthorne for “Outstanding Intern.” Both are students at the University of Arkansas in the Turfgrass department. Congrats!!
Amazing experience as @logangturf volunteered for the 2024 Pleasant Valley Simmon’s Bank Champions Tour Tournament in Little Rock, AR. Assisted with raking bunkers, backpack blowing, and course preparation.
