EGU AND JOHN DEERE TAKE TO THE ROAD AGAIN
The EGU are delighted that John Deere have agreed to sponsor
the English Golf Union Golf Club roadshows that are taking
place around the country during October.
This is the third time John Deere have supported the roadshows,
which provide an opportunity for club secretaries, course
managers and club officials to keep up to date with the latest
environmental and operational issues facing clubs.
The roadshows are now in their 12th year and each of the
six venues will offer ecology and agronomy presentations outside
on each of the golf courses hosting the events as well as
in-house presentations on issues including greenkeeper training,
golf course policy, course equipment maintenance and course
remodelling.
John Deere will also be supplying the equipment for the hands
on machinery demonstration that is a key part of each roadshow.
Paul Keeling, EGU Club Services Manager said, “We are
delighted to be working with John Deere again. These roadshows
always prove to be popular and having such an well-known and
valued industry name working with us is an added bonus.”
The first roadshow takes place at Trentham Golf Club, Staffordshire
on 2nd October and dates continue through to the 18th October.
David Hart, Commercial & Consumer Equipment Division
Manager of John Deere, commented, “As a major supplier
of golf course maintenance equipment worldwide, we value the
opportunity provided by the roadshows to meet club managers,
secretaries and greenkeepers and get their feedback on our
range of products and financial services. We are very happy
to be in partnership once again with the English Golf Union
and look forward to another successful series of events around
the country.”
