Attend the ADA-focused Power Hour in Orlando

Jan 30, 2026

Join GCSAA’s Director of Government Affairs Chava McKeel in Orlando for an hour all about facility accessibility. During this year’s conference, McKeel will be joined by Ryan Severidt, CGCS; John Petrovsky, CGCS; and Justin VanLanduit, to discuss the ins and outs of hosting the U.S. Adaptive Open alongside the USGA’s newest research on the impact of adaptive golf cars on playing surfaces. Also, former golf course superintendent VanLanduitIn will provide insight on playing in the U.S. Adaptive Open.

This Power Hour will provide practical tips and resources from the National Alliance for Accessible Golf that can be used at any facility to support accommodation with the ADA.

Join us on Tuesday, Feb. 3, from 8:30-9:30 am at GCSAA’s Conference and Trade Show in Room 315B of the Orange County Convention Center. For more information, please contact Chava McKeel at cmckeel@gcsaa.org.
