Profile Products, ASGCA Forge Education Partnership

May 25, 2012

Pair developing educational programming and tools for course development

A recently-forged partnership between Profile Products and the American Society of Golf Course Architects (ASGCA) is supporting educational opportunities for ASGCA members and the golf industry. The partnership will allow the ASGCA to develop new educational programming and tools to help ASGCA members work more effectively in golf course development and remodeling.

Profile’s golf division provides solutions in turf establishment and erosion control, in addition to its complete line of ceramic particles to amend soils.

 “We believe in helping those who are involved right at the beginning of golf projects — whether in new construction or remodels,” said Profile’s Vice President of Marketing Joe Betulius. “These are people who have the knowledge to craft courses that are not only fun to play but are environmentally sustainable. ASGCA members are among the best in the world at their jobs and we feel good about helping them maintain that excellence through education.”

Profile Products joins Toro and Rain Bird as ASGCA Major Partners.
 
The partnership began last fall when the ASGCA Executive Committee held its fall meeting at Profile’s headquarters in Buffalo Grove, Ill. The ASGCA Executive Committee and staff met with Profile® senior staff to craft education opportunities for members.
