Ozark Turf Association Member Achieves GCSAA Class A Status

Ozark Turf Association member, Tyler Scroggins, Golf Course Superintendent at Holiday Island Country Club in Holiday Island, Arkansas, achieved Class A status this past month with the Golf Course Superintendent Association of America (GCSAA).  Tyler was recognized in the August 2025 issue of Golf Course Management magazine. The OTA congratulates Tyler on his achievement.

For members looking to earn Class A status, it consists of a combination of formal education, experience as a golf course superintendent, continuing education and providing proof of a valid pesticide license or passing the GCSAA IPM Exam. Class A membership demonstrates a personal commitment to lifelong learning, environmental stewardship and elevating the golf course management profession. It also shows employers that their achievements and competencies are documented and validated. For those looking to pursue Class A status, reach out to Randy Robinson, Central Field Representative at GCSAA.
