The Sonoraville High Turf program had the amazing opportunity to visit East Lake Golf course during the PGA Tour Championship to have a behind the scenes experience of the preparation that goes into hosting the event. Students were able to rotate through industry stations : Machinery & Maintenance, Agronomy and Chemical Application, Industry Personnel, Mowers, and finished off the day by watching golf and enjoying a sponsored lunch on the 7th & 8th greens! Huge thank you to everyone involved in making this trip possible for our students!
