Testimonials
"The Turfgrass Information Center already is THE Library of the turfgrass industry, and as it grows and matures, it will become the premiere source of information for turfgrass students, educators, and practitioners. Everyone in the industry has much to gain in seeing it succeed, and it is incumbent on each of us to support the Center so that its full potential can be realized."

More about the USGA support for the Endowment Campaign
"The TIC, by indexing and abstracting virtually everything that exists about turfgrass, insures that researchers, students, and practitioners all have access to the information necessary to move the world of turf management forward. It is imperative that this irreplaceable resource be placed on a secure financial basis. Your one-time gift to this endowment will provide the ongoing funds that will insure its continuation."

"Golf Course Superintendents, who manage and maintain the game's most valuable asset, use the Turfgrass Information File as a window to identify the research and turf management information necessary. The turfgrass literature is the foundation for achieving excellence in executing the superintendent's primary responsibility, which is why the GCSAA encourages your support of this campaign."
