Rounds 4 Research auction open until June 21, 2015

(The Glencoe Golf and Country Club)

Get ready to bid on great golf deals! Whether you choose to bid on courses that have challenged the greatest players in golf or whether you just want a great deal on a local gem, you are supporting the future of the game by funding turfgrass research programs through the Rounds 4 Research auction.

This is the first year the Canadian Turfgrass Research Foundation (CTRF) is participating in the Rounds 4 Research auction, presented by the Environmental Institute for Golf, the philanthropic organization of the Golf Course Superintendents Association of America. Rounds 4 Research is an innovative program that was designed to address a critical shortage in funding for turfgrass research by auctioning off donated rounds of golf at courses across the country. The CTRF will receive 80% of all auction proceeds from rounds donated to it and sold. The funds raised will be used to support golf and sports field turf management research projects.

Bidding will run June 8-21, 2015.  To visit the auction site and place a bid please click here.  To learn more about the program, visit the Canadian Turfgrass Research Foundation website or the Rounds 4 Research website.
