OTA 2023 Meeting Schedule Released

The Ozark Turf Association has released their 2023 meeting schedule.

We have 10 events scheduled so far with more events in the works, keep tuned to the website and emails for updates.

The next event scheduled is Friday February 17th, our annual bowling meeting at Enterprise Lanes in Springfield. This is followed by education meetings followed by golf at our March meeting presented by FMC, April and September meetings presented by Professional Turf Products, and our June meeting presented by SiteOne.

Our big fundraising event is on May 25th, the OTA Scholarship and Research Outing to be held at Silo Ridge Country Club in Bolivar. Syngenta is sponsoring the lunch and snacks after play while we wait for the scoring results.

In August we have our Family Fun Night at the Springfield Cardinals game, which is presented by Syngenta. This is a great night to bring the family out and watch our AA Texas League Springfield Cardinals and enjoy the post-game fireworks before the kids head back to school. The tentative date is Friday August 11th, with August 4 as our second choice. We are waiting for group sales to open to confirm.

Also, in August, August 28th, this year is the OTA Championships presented by Clear Creek Golf Car and Utility Vehicles, and Club Car. Lunch is provided by VanWall Equipment. This year’s event will be played at Highland Springs Country Club, the original home of the long running Price Cutter Charity Championship on the Korn Ferry Tour. The tournament was first played in the inaugural season of the Ben Hogan Tour.

We are working on the location and date of the OTA Christmas Party presented by Professional Turf Products.

We do have the location of the 2024 Education/Annual Meeting, it will continue to be at Highland Springs Country Club, sponsored again by VanWall Equipment with lunch provided by FMC. The January 2024 date is tentative scheduled for January 17th.

The March, April, June, Championship, September, Christmas Party and 2024 Education Day events are part of the 2023 OTA Prepaid Meeting Plan, you can save at least $50 by purchasing the plan. Contact the OTA for more details.

We are excited for the 2023 meeting calendar, and we hope to see many of our members at as many events as possible. We thank all of our members and vendor partners for making this schedule possible.
