In 2015 we started a “Turfgrass Education Sponsors Program” to provide our vendors, supporters, friends and members of the MTC yet another opportunity to get your company name and web page out to all of the industry.  Response was so favorable that we have decided to expand the program more this year in hopes of doubling or perhaps even surpassing that goal.  YOU are invited to:

Become a 2016 PLATINUM Sponsor with a $2500 donation.  As a Platinum Sponsor you will be listed on all the sponsor's signs, be encouraged to display a table top display at all the above functions FREE of CHARGE and we will list your company name on our letter head plus we will list your company name and web page linked to your web page on our web “Sponsors” page and all e-blasts we do throughout the year.  Additionally, you will be entitled to exhibit FREE of CHARGE using a single booth at the next M.A.T.E. Conference (additional booth space maybe purchased directly from M.A.T.E.) or to enter a foursome at the Annual MTC/Angie Cammarota Golf Tournament for Turfgrass Research.

Become a 2016 GOLD Sponsor with a $1000 donation.  As a Gold Sponsor you will be listed on all the sponsor's signs, be encouraged to display a table top display at all the “Bronze Sponsor” functions FREE of CHARGE (except the M.A.T.E. Conference) and we will list your company name on our letter head plus we will list your company name and web page linked to your own web page on our web “Sponsors” page and all e-blasts we do throughout the year (a new system we just started that is working very well).

Become a 2016 SILVER Sponsor with a $500 donation.  As a Silver Sponsor we will provide the same signs showing your company name and web site at all the same function as the Bronze Sponsor, plus you will be encouraged to display a table top display at all the “Bronze Sponsor” functions FREE of CHARGE (except the M.A.T.E. Conference).

Become a 2016 BRONZE Sponsor with a $250 donation.  As a Bronze Sponsor we will provide signs showing your company name and web site at all the MTC Sponsored Pesticide and Fertilizer Applicator Recertification Classes, The MTC/Angie Cammarota Golf Tournament and at the MTC Display at next winter's M.A.T.E. Conference plus any other MTC sponsored activities.

            Please complete the form on the back and return as soon as possible

            Please be generous and be a “2016 Turfgrass Education Sponsor” and help us continue supporting the University of Maryland Turfgrass Program for 2016.

March Pesticide and Professional Fertilizer Re-Certification Recap

Over 60 turfgrass professionals attended the Maryland Turfgrass Council re-certification held at the Maryland Department of Agriculture on March 10. The continuing education session provided an opportunity for attendees to gain valuable education from the University of Maryland turfgrass research team, earn both fertilizer and pesticide re-certification credits and network with fellow professionals. The training and catered lunch were free to MTC members.

The MTC would like to thank our lunch sponsors: Chesapeake Valley Seed, Jacobsen Turf Equipment, Newsom Seed, Pennington Seed, and Turf Equipment and Supply Company. Thank you very much to all of our educational sponsors to make this a free event with a great lunch for all MTC members!

More pesticide re-certification trainings are being organized for this spring…stay tuned for more information on dates and locations!
