WCTA Members are Asking About the 2025 Field Day

By Jerry Rousseau

The WCTA office is fielding quite a few questions about this year's field day but all we can say is that as of early June, plans remain tentative.

Typically, the field day alternates annually between BC and Alberta, usually taking place mid-September but not always as was the case in Kamloops a few years back.  We try to avoid conflict with other events and it really comes down to the host venue's availability.  Unlike the conference, there's a lot more flexibility in terms of moving the field day around.

We have invited a host and are looking at 3rd week of September, Wednesday or Thursday tends to work best, but there have been some, shall we say 'complications' that may require further consideration.

On that note and just in case our original plans fall through (sorry, can't really say much more), if you're interested in hosting a turf management field day this coming fall, please get in touch.  Hopefully we will be making an announcement in the next few weeks.
