Dear Fellow Turfgrass Professional,

On behalf of the Eastern Shore Association of Golf Course Superintendents (ESAGCS), we would like to invite you to renew your membership for 2010. The ESAGCS is very proud of the accomplishments and service that we continue to provide for the local golf community, industry, and members of this association. Membership in this association brings value to you as a member, to your facility, and to your employer by providing opportunities for education, networking, community service, socialization, and professional development.

Our 2010 membership offers new members to the association a one-time 50% discount on the posted dues amount.  If you have not been a member within the past three years (during the 2007-2009 season), you qualify as a new member.

The 2010 dues structure is as follows:

Golf Course Superintendents (Class A and SM) & Affiliate members (Class F): $90/pp

Assistant Superintendents (Class C): $60/pp

Enclosed is your 2010 Membership Renewal Packet, which includes your dues invoice and an information update form. Please take the time to fill out the form completely as we are creating a new database of our members. Please fax the completed form to (410) 548-3776.

We are optimistic that you value your membership and hope that you will encourage others to renew or join this great association. Within the next month, you will receive the 2010 Schedule of Events and speaker list for each association meeting. We look forward to your participation in our monthly meetings and all other scheduled events for this year.

If you have any questions or concerns regarding membership or upcoming ESAGCS events, please feel free to contact any board member on the attached list. You may also contact the association at (410) 548-1599 or by email at admin@esagcs.org.

Thank you for your support,

Matthew H Fauerbach
