As previously reported in the March/April 2014 Turf Line News, the WCTA has begun a major renovation of its CEC record keeping program. We are happy to report that phase 1 of software development is now complete and we are moving onto phase 2.
In the fall of 2013, the newly formed WCTA governance committee started working toward Constitution updates. Efforts continued this past summer with proposed changes brought forward to the Board of Directors in September.
