NCR Country Club to Host
Ohio Turfgrass Foundation Annual Golf Tournament

The Ohio Turfgrass Foundation (OTF) is excited to announce that its annual Scholarship and Research fundraising Golf Tournament will be held at NCR Country Club, Dayton, OH on Monday, October 1.

NCR Country Club opened in 1954. The Club was designed by the late Dick Wilson, a famous golf course architect from Delray Beach, Florida. NCR Country Club has two distinctively different 18-hole golf courses. The courses and their facilities are situated on 350+ acres.

The OTF Tournament will be played on the famous South Course. The South Course has long been regarded as one of America’s “Top 100” golf courses and is certainly one of the best classical designs of our time.

During its 50+ year existence the South Course has hosted several National Championships, including the 51st PGA Championship, the 41st U.S. Women’s Open, the 1998 U.S. Mid-Amateur, and the 2005 U.S. Senior Open. OTF Member Jim Campion is the golf course superintendent.

Everyone involved in professional turfgrass management are encouraged to sign up early as space is limited to the first 144 golfers. General information and registration forms are available on the OTF website at www.OhioTurfgrass.org, by sending a request to info@otgt.org, or by calling 937-294-6842.
