Preparing for PGA Merchandise Show

I have been preparing for the PGA Merchandise Show, which is vital to the success of the ASGA on an annual basis. About seven years ago, the ASGA switched to all crystal glass trophies for every ASGA Championship. My good friend Steve Foehl, Executive Director of the New Jersey State Golf Association, suggested I give Sterling Cut Glass of Erlanger, Kentucky a try - and they have more than lived up to their reputation. These trophies are gorgeous cuts of glass and have a much longer shelf-life than any trophy we have ever presented. I am meeting our customer service rep, Marla on Thursday at the PGA Show to make all orders for 2010. I have been perusing the 2010 catalog of "cups. vases and trophies" and Sterling has once again put together a nice selection that will fit any golf association or country club budget. Come to think of it, I know that Pleasant Valley Country Club uses Sterling Cut Glass for its awards and I am sure there are other Arkansas clubs as well. The discounts and free shipping offered by Sterling Cut Glass with orders placed at the PGA Show save the ASGA thousands of dollars. In addition to the order for all 25 ASGA Championships, I will be finding other PGA Show specials such as tee gifts etc. as well as check out the latest in equipment for 2010 at Demo Day. The PGA Merchandise Show is an important part of the ASGA's success - as are the many talented men and women of the Arkansas PGA Chapter.
