The Vision Statement for Indiana Golf is to provide a hub for golf in Indiana by positively influencing the golfers of today and tomorrow.That influence recently expanded when the Indiana Golf Course Superintendents Association (IGCSA) joined the list of organizations headquartered under the Indiana Golf umbrella. In August, the IGCSA and its 50 members are now part of the Indiana Golf family that includes four other golf-related not-for-profits. The IGCSA has never had a full-time staff and has had to rely on a volunteer board to administer all aspects of the organization. The goal will be to increase the overall visibility of the organization and grow its membership. Early changes will be a revised website, updated member newsletter, and an effort to reach out to potential new members. Golf course superintendents are, obviously, a vital part of the golf industry and bringing them into our organization makes sense from the standpoint of continuing to work toward a unified voice and cooperative working relationship for as many golf-related organizations as possible. That cooperative effort has had a long history in the state. Indiana Golf also houses the Indiana Golf Association, Indiana Section PGA, Indiana Women’s Golf Association, Indiana Golf Foundation, plus the IGCSA. In 1972, Indiana’s golf leaders had the vision of establishing the IGA-PGA. The IGA-PGA is a separate organization that was formed by the Indiana Golf Association and the Indiana Section PGA. The joint organization was designed to serve as the administrative body of Indiana Golf. By Mike David Indiana Golf Welcomes the Indiana Golf Course Superintendents Association
