Cuando digo “Atraer Gente,” no solo me refiero a servir a nue- stros miembros, sino a dar la importancia a todas aquellas personas que están en nuestra industria. Nuestra misión comienza a partir del compromiso de la STMA: Ser el líder re- conocido en promover la industria de los cam- pos deportivos en pasto. Somos una industria diversa, y entre más podamos ayudar a las personas a triunfar en su profesión, más fuerte se vuelve nuestra industria. He preparado este mensaje en es- pañol, para llegar a nuestros miembros de habla hispana. Bienvenidos! También hemos incluido en la revista, un boletín informa- tivo en Español sobre: Estrategias de Man- tención para Campos Con Uso Excesivo. Además tenemos dos boletines adicionales en Español, Manejo del Campo Durante una Sequía, y Lista de Seguridad y Man- tención de Los Campos de Fútbol y Fút- bol Americano. Estos tres artículos se pueden encontrar en www.STMA.org. Usted también puede encontrar aquí las ver- siones en inglés. La STMA ofrece un DVD, que se encuentra disponible en español e in- glés, sobre el manejo de un campo de béis- bol y cómo construir un montículo de lanzamiento. Yo le animo a compartir la revista con sus colegas de habla hispana y a buscar formas para atraer a más personas y compartir sus experiencias con toda nuestra industria. Una marea alta alcanza a todos los bar- cos! La STMA está comprometida con el manejo avanzado de los campos deportivos. Greetings! I hope that you are having a great spring sports season. I want to tell you a little bit about an area of focus for STMA for this year—outreach. By outreach, I mean not only serving our members, but being relevant and inclusive of all who are in the profession. Our mission starts with STMA’s aspiration: To be the rec- ognized leader in strengthening the sports turf industry. We are a diverse industry, and the more we can help individuals in the profession succeed, the stronger our industry becomes. I have prepared this message in Spanish to reach out to our Spanish-speaking con- stituents. Welcome! We have also included in this issue an educational bulletin in Span- ish, Strategies for Managing Heavily Used Fields. We have two additional bulletins in Spanish, Field Management During a Drought, and a Football /Soccer Field Mainte- nance and Safety Checklist. All three can be found at www.STMA.org. You can also find the English versions on the website. STMA offers a DVD on baseball infield mainte- nance and mound-building that the viewer can select to watch in Spanish or English. I encourage you to share this issue with your Spanish speaking colleagues, and to proactively seek ways to reach out and share your expertise throughout our industry. A rising tide raises all boats! STMA is commit- ted to advancing sports turf management. troy.smith@broncos.nfl.net President’s Message Troy Smith, CSFM www.stma.org SportsTurf 7
