Here is another photo from the history file. 

The caption says that it includes Mich Twiot, Shawn Emmack, Jeff Oelmann, Bill Greenwell, Brad Peterson, Scott Luke, and Doug Struyk

That is not in order and the list is not complete.  Let me know if you recognize the others.

There are some very old pictures of people involved in the turf industry in the following link.  These were left to me by Ed Cott, who was in turf extension at Iowa State from the late 1940's to the early 80's.  If you recognize any of these people, let them or their family know about the site.
