LINCOLN, Neb. -- With a fresh look and durable laminated cover and tabs, the Golf Course Builders Association of America's (GCBAA) 2009 Membership Directory is now available. Considered a primary industry source for finding contact information for golf course builders and suppliers, the GCBAA Directory is being shipped to members this month.

The directory contains a comprehensive and updated list of the over 400 GCBAA member-companies and 800 plus member-employees. The directory is neatly segregated into various categories to make it "user-friendly."

Providing pertinent information for building or renovating a golf course, the directory also highlights all GCBAA members who have met the selective guidelines and requirements for GCBAA certification.

Another feature of the directory is a reference section that includes an equivalency chart (metric and non-metric weights and measures), a formulas chart and an estimations reference to calculate materials and costs for golf course renovations and building.

GCBAA members receive an initial 2009 Membership Directory free of charge and can purchase additional directories for $50 each. The directory is available to non-members for the purchase price of $100 by going to the GCBAA website store-www.gcbaa.org, emailing information@gcbaa.org, or calling the office 402-476-4444
