Robert A. Felix Memorial Golf Tournament

The popular Robert Felix Memorial Golf Tournament at TCIA’s annual Winter Management Conference (WMC) is a great way to indulge in an afternoon of guilt-free golf while supporting our industry.

Every year, golfers travel to WMC mid-winter and take to the tropical greens in a friendly competition. Proceeds from this popular event are earmarked to benefit students of arboriculture.

Even if you can't play, you can still make a donation or become a sponsor to benefit students of arboriculture, the future of our industry.
