The Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary Program for golf courses is an award winning education and certification program that helps courses protect the environment and preserve the natural heritage of the game of golf. By enhancing the valuable natural areas and wildlife habitats that golf courses provide, improve efficiency, and minimize potentially harmful impacts of golf course operations, the program serves an important environmental role worldwide.
To achieve certification with the ACSP, implementing and demonstrating environmental practices in the following areas are required;
*Environmental Planning
*Wildlife and Habitat Management
*Chemical Use Reduction and Safety
*Water Conservation
*Water Quality Management
*Outreach and Education
The certification effort was led by Assistant Superintendent, Jake Witherspoon. His time and efforts are appreciated and the golf course maintenance staff looks forward to continually maintaining the golf course in an environmentally friendly manner.
