have been involved with STMA, I have made
so many wonderful friends over the years and I
have gotten so much more out of being a
member than I could ever have imagined. I was
blessed to have so very many wonderful people
help me in my career and I hope that I have
made them proud.

CSFM/CGM
Today's Sports Turf
Management is a blending of art, science, creativity and technical
competency to provide
a safe and aesthetically
appealing sports surface. Television
John A. Fik, CSFM/CGM
and the internet

have had a big influence on the sports turf industry as well as the golf course industry. With
this has brought a greater effort to keep the
client/customer educated and to manage their
expectations. Safety of the athletes has become
a primary concern of all sports turf managers
and learning from industry peers on how to
improve safety keeps you one step ahead any
litigious actions.
Chris Metcalf CSFM/CGM started with
our company in December 2000 as Grounds,
Landscape and Sports Fields Manager at Aurora
University and received his CSFM designation
on July 1, 2012. Chris has always been someone
who has wanted to learn more and constantly
pushes himself and his crew in providing a
more safe and attractive campus. When he
called and told me he was applying to become a
CSFM it was just another example of how stay-
ing at the status quo was not for him.
Darrel Maier is a former golf course superintendent that started with our company on
June 1, 2010 and is currently the Grounds,
Landscape and Sports Field Manager at St.
Luke's School (a private day school) in western
Connecticut. The state of Connecticut, as well
as many other states in the Northeast, is under
a strict "no spray" policy for all public and private K-12 schools. Darrell is constantly researching information through university
studies, on line resources through STMA and
talking with other sports turf managers to get
the latest BMP information. He is looking at
converting one of his Kentucky bluegrass fields
to a lower impact improved Tall Fescue variety
as a test case. He has come up with imaginative
ways to control some of the diseases that occur
on Kentucky bluegrasses. n
