Memphis is the place; and July 18-21 is the date for the 2006 Turfgrass Producers International (TPI) Summer Convention & Field Day.

 

This Mississippi Delta City is the ideal location for members of TPI and others to enjoy a unique schedule of educational, informational, networking and social opportunities associated with this annual event.

 

 

Scheduled activities include:

 

• Field Day at Winstead Turf Farms: demonstrations will be held on warm-season bermudagrass for the first time
• Family Fun Fair with fireworks
• TPI Banquet
• Annual Business Meeting
• Roundtable Forum
• Women’s Forum
• ITPF Memorial Golf Tournament
• Local Tours: Graceland/Wimmer Cookbook Factory, Catfish/Sod Farm Tours & Tunica Casino

Attendees will stay at the landmark Peabody Hotel, in the heart of downtown and just two blocks from popular Beale Street. Memphis offers a lot to do when not attending TPI events: trolley rides through downtown, shopping, Gibson Guitar Factory tours, rock & roll museums, memorable restaurants, and much more.
