Planning Ahead – Even More WCTA Events on the Horizon

By Jerry Rousseau

Whether it’s keeping up with technology, managing day-to-day operations or planning educational events, not-for-profit industry associations typically struggle to get in front of most things.

The WCTA is no different but I’m happy to report that strategic planning efforts by the Board of Directors last fall along with some more recent behind-the-scenes production work by staff has resulted in some extended forward scheduling all the way into 2027 as follows (non-bolded events are still tentative).

2026

Feb 10-12  WCTA Conference and Trade Show, River Rock Casino Resort,
                   Richmond, BC
May 28       WCTA Golf Tourney for Turf Research, Redwoods Golf Course,
                   Langley, BC
Sep 18        Alberta Turf Management Field Day, Eagle Lake Turf Farm,
                   Strathmore, AB

2027

Feb 10-12  WCTA Conference and Trade Show, location TBA
Sep xx        BC Turf Management Field Day, Kelowna, BC

More information will most definitely be shared as plans firm up.  Speaking of events, I hope to see you next week at the 2025 BC Turf Management Field Day taking place Sep 18th at Bos Sod Farms in Abbotsford!
