1 Club Managers Association of America Central Pennsylvania Chapter August 13, 2010 Dear Club Manager: The Central Pennsylvania Chapter of the Club Managers Association of America (CMAA) will be holding the "Twenty-first Annual CMAA Chapter Education Tournament" on Monday, October 4, 2010 at the Bent Creek Country Club. Over the past twenty years, this tournament has helped raise nearly One Hundred and Twenty Thousand Dollars, which has been awarded to over 60 students pursuing careers in Club Management, Turfgrass Management, Culinary Arts and Professional Golf. These students have been associated in one way or another with the private clubs within our own chapter or have been Penn State students, which is the home of our student chapter. Other uses of the tournament funds include; recruitment of students into our student chapter, development and support of Chapter based educational programs and the subsidy of the continuing education of Managers in our chapter from clubs that do not have the budgetary resources to support CMAA educational programs for their managers. Due to the anticipated participants, we will not allow vendors to participate in golf until all clubs that want to play are represented.
