MULTIPLE REGISTRATION DISCOUNT
NOW OFFERED FOR THE OGCM CONFERENCE & TRADE SHOW.
Due to numerous requests from our Members who wish to
bring more of their staff members to the OGCM Conference, our Conference Committee has decided to offer rebates for groups
from the same club.
In order to qualify for this rebate, the group must be
staying at the official conference hotel – The Marriott Fallsview .
1st and 2nd registrations are at the regular
rate (early bird or regular, member or non member) WITH THE 3RD
AND ANY SUBSEQUENT REGISTRATIONS RECEIVING A 50% REBATE VIA ONE CHEQUE
PAYMENT AFTER THE CONFERENCE HAS CONCLUDED AND BOTH REGISTRATION AND
HOTEL BOOKINGS HAVE BEEN VERIFIED.
Questions can be directed to Sally Ross at the OGSA office.
The fine print: This rebate does not apply to already discounted
registrations (trade show, retired or students). Discount will be
applied to the least expensive registration(s) listed for that club,
with a cheque being mailed out approx. 8 weeks after the close of the
conference. We reserve the right to restrict rebates if they do not
follow the spirit of this policy. Please contact the office if you
have any questions.


Thank you to our sponsors Syngenta and NGF Golf

OGSA Public Meeting Tool Kit
A Special Seminar and Coaching Session to be Offered at the Conference
The OGSA is currently in
the process of developing a comprehensive “Tool Kit” to help our
members prepare for and successfully execute the mandated Public
Meetings that each golf course will have to perform beginning in
2012. We have assembled a committee led by three OGSA Directors as
well as a number of recognized industry professionals to help
create this “tool kit”.
The “Tool Kit” will
include a presentation each superintendent can customize to his or
her specific property which will cover the environmental and
socioeconomic benefits of golf courses, information on the IPM
accreditation process and information about pesticide regulations
in Canada. It will also include a step by step information sheet
that will assist with the execution of the meeting to ensure that
all of the requirements set by the MOE are met.
The “OGSA Tool Kit” will
continue to evolve over the next several months and will be
presented through a hands-on, interactive seminar which will
include a coaching session at the 2012 conference in Niagara
Falls.
All materials included in
the Tool Kit will then be made available online to all OGSA
members free of charge. It is the goal of the OGSA to meet the
needs of the members and provide them with all the elements they
will need to execute a successful public meeting.
