VICE PRESIDENT What’s happening with the Pocono Turfgrass Association? We had a meeting Tom Wilchak February 23 at Pocono Farms C.C., thanks to Gene Huelster. In brief, I appointed Bethlehem Golf Club Mark Eisele to the Board to fill a vacancy. The Bylaws dictate that there be 9 directors, and we had only 8. Welcome, Mark. We are looking into selling shirts SECRETARY/TREASURER with the PTGA logo on them. I hope to have some available to show at our first Tony Grieco, CGCS meeting at Silver Creek. Mark Monahan and co-chairman Gene Huelster will be Silver Creek Country Club representing us at the next Allied meeting set for late February. Look for the report on what’s happening in our next issue of “Chips & Putts”. Tom Wilchak presented PAST PRESIDENT us with our meeting sites. Our goal this year is to bring the meeting cost down from Ron Garrison, CGCS the $65.00 to $55.00 range. Never a doubt when Tom’s about! New membership Fox Hill Country Club directory will be out very soon. That’s a few highlights. You can find out more about this meeting elsewhere in this issue.

TOTAL: $175,000.00 GCSAA Survey reveals Golf Course Superintendent Compensation and Benefits Increasing. A GCSAA analysis of member compensation and benefits indicates significant increases in both, due largely to job experience and education levels. Two survey instruments, which did not vary notably, were distributed to GCSAA members in 1995 and again in 1998. Overall, the salaries for golf course superintendents increased 8% (from $49,269 to 53,205) during the three year period. Certified golf course superintendents with more than 20 years experience commanded the most significant salary increase on aver­ age, at 17.9% (from $56,618 to $66,774). Those certified members, regardless of experience, gained 10.4% in compensation in the same time span. In total, certified superintendents’ salaries averaged 27% higher than those not certified. Fifty percent of all GCSAA members earn more than $50,000 annually, while 15% earn more than $75,000. The median response to the 1998 survey profiles a superintendent with 10 years experience gained at two golf facilities, with 6.73 years at his/her current position. That compares with the 1995 survey of 12 years experience with a current position average of 7 years. As also observed in 1995, the average age of superintendents is 40 years old. In 1998 IPHILADELPIA TURF COMPANY superintendents managed budgets and payroll of $500,000 (median national response). 4 0 4 9 LANDISVILLE ROAD, BOX 8 6 5 I DOYLESTOWN, PA 1 8 9 0 1 -0 8 6 5 The salary survey also reveals that superintendents report to a variety of managers/ employees. Leading the list is the general manager (26%, green committee (22%), and TURF EQUIPMENT IRRIGATION EQUIPMENT & DESIGN SERVICES owner (19%). Those employers also display widespread support of GCSAA activities, with FLOWTRONEX/PSI PUMP STATIONS 96% paying association dues, 91% providing funds for seminars/trade shows and travel OTTERBINE AERATORS funds, plus 89% foot the bill for local association dues.
