The Year In Review - Travels of John Mascaro

The below photo's are a photo journal for my website visitors to enjoy. I have been fortunate to have been able to travel from time to time and with each trip, I photograph turfgrass conditions that I encounter. I will continue this forum and add to the photo's (and of course soil profile samples) as I continue to travel from place to place.


This is the tour I led for the Sports Turf Managers Association, Florida Chapter # 1. This is Haverland Turf Farm in Indiantown, FL. Dell Haverland, Owner is speaking to our group.	This is the second stop on the tour, Saint Lucie County Sports Complex, Port Saint Lucie, FL. This is the Mets Spring Training facility.

Inside the Mets locker room at the Mets Training Facility.	This is one of the practice fields at the Mets training camp. This is the only artificial field there, consisting of an Astroturf infield. All other practice fields are natural grass.
