The Association
mission statement refers to “ . . . promote the interchange of
information among Member Clubs; . . . “ A key element of this
effort is meetings conducted on topics such as club management,
handicapping, and the USGA Rules of Golf. The WPGA promotes
attendance at meetings that other organizations conduct such as
the USGA (Regional Conference), and the Pennsylvania Turfgrass
Council (Western Pennsylvania Turfgrass Conference and Show).
The WPGA meets with clubs on various topics of interest, such as
Rules of Golf/Tournament Management. The Association regularly
conducts seminars at which pros, managers, and superintendents
gain professional certification points. Another element of this
mission is the annual publication of a Club Operations Study.
