Increased attendance, education help define 2026 GCSAA show
After several years of static attendance, the GCSAA Conference and Trade Show experienced its largest increase in nearly a decade. A total of 12,824 attended this year's show in Orlando, which is the most since the 2017 show, also in central Florida, attracted 13,600. That number also is almost 2,000 more than last year's show in San Diego (11,000). Illustrating the ongoing need for quality turf education, attendees filled 8,074 seminar seats, a number the GCSAA says is a new record that has stood since the 2008 show in Orlando that drew more than 25,000 attendees. This year's event was bolstered by education tailored for assistant superintendents and equipment managers. The trade show floor at the Orange County Convention Center featured 523 exhibitors (vs. 464 in 2025) and 178,600 square feet of exhibit space, an increase of 16% over 2025. Several awards also were handed out at the show: Col. John Morley Award — Bob Alonzi, CGCS, Joe Alonzi, CGCS. President's Award for Environmental Stewardship — Jim Pavonetti, CGCS, Fairview Country Club Greenwich, Connecticut. Outstanding Contribution Award — Bert McCarty, Ph.D., professor emeritus Clemson University. Emerging Leader Award — Steven Spatafore, Los Altos (California) Golf and Country Club. Edwin Budding Award — John Patterson, CTEM, Atlanta Athletic Club, Johns Creek, Georgia. Next year's conference and show is scheduled for Jan. 15-21 in New Orleans.

Hyannisport Club's Mac is this year's top dog
Move over Reggie Jackson, there's a new "Mr. October" in town . . . Mac, a 1-year-old border collie mix from Hyannisport Club in Hyannis Port, Massachusetts, received the most votes from attendees of the GCSAA Conference and Trade Show to become the 2026 "Dog of the Year." In what has become a must each year on the trade show floor, attendees of this year's GCSAA show visited the LebanonTurf booth to vote for their favorite pooch from the annual "Dog Days of Golf Calendar" to determine which would be crowned Dog of the Year. "Mac clearly won the hearts of this year's crowd at the show," said Christopher S. Gray, Sr., director of marketing for LebanonTurf. "He's a deserving winner who represents our industry very well as true golf course working dog." Mac, a 1-year-old border collie mix, works at Hyannisport Club in Massachusetts. Mac, who began patrolling the Hyannisport Club property at only 8 weeks old, has earned the title "The Chief of the Geese Police". Mac also enjoys checking irrigation heads to ensure they are working properly and playing with the syringe hose while his dad, first assistant golf course superintendent David Kennedy, keeps the greens cooled. Along with the glamourous title, Mac and David will receive $500 and a plaque. Additionally, Mac earned $3,000 for David's local GCSAA chapter and a $2,000 donation to K9 for Warriors. LebanonTurf and the GCSAA partner together annually to develop and provide the annual calendar that has become an industry staple for the members of the association and can readily be found in golf course maintenance facilities throughout the United States and abroad. Submissions for the 2027 calendar will open in the summer.
