Midwest Association of Golf Course Superintendents

The Midwest Association of Golf Course Superintendents (MAGCS) is an organization, founded in 1926 by a small group of Chicago area greenkeepers, which offers networking capabilities, education, employment, and scholarship opportunities to those individuals who are involved in or interested in the growth and enjoyment of golf. The membership of 800 stretches across the midwest states of Illinois, Indiana, Wisconsin, and Michigan.

MAGCS' membership includes men and women who are Golf Course Superintendents, those who provide the essential products and valuable services, and equipment technicians. Through a monthly magazine, golf events, educational conferences, research, generous contributions, employment services and environmental information MAGCS provides its members with great opportunities in the advancement of individuals in the industry and also the industry itself.

Through the dedication and hardwork of the membership, the courses represented by the MAGCS members have earned the reputaion of being some of the best managed golf courses in the United States. I am proud to have the chance to complete an internship this summer with a club that is associated with the MAGCS, Medinah Country Club.
