President’s Message

SPRING 2026

Spring has arrived across British Columbia, marking the beginning of another busy and rewarding golf season. As golf courses emerge from winter and teams transition into full maintenance mode, I want to recognize the dedication, professionalism, and pride our members bring to their facilities each year.

A Milestone Winter and an Exciting Summer Ahead
This past December, the BCGSA celebrated tremendous success with our Professional Development Days. Record attendance clearly reflected the value our members place on education, connection, and continuous improvement. The strong participation, engaging sessions, and generous support from our industry partners made this event one of the most successful in our Association’s history. Thank you to everyone who attended, presented, sponsored, and contributed to making it such a highlight.

Looking ahead, we are excited for the upcoming Exchange Event this August at The Okanagan Golf Club. The Exchange remains one of our most anticipated gatherings, offering an outstanding opportunity to learn from peers, share ideas, and strengthen professional relationships. We look forward to another memorable and informative event in a truly exceptional setting.

Building a Stronger Association Together
The British Columbia Golf Superintendents Association remains committed to supporting our members through education, advocacy, and meaningful opportunities to connect across all regions of the province. Your engagement and involvement are what make this Association strong.

As the season unfolds, I encourage everyone to stay involved, participate where possible, and take time to recognize the efforts of your teams. Their long hours and dedication each spring form the foundation of success we all share.

On behalf of the Board of Directors, thank you for your continued support of the BCGSA. I wish you a safe, productive, and successful season ahead.

Sincerely,
Mark Berg
BCGSA President
