Lawrence, Kan. (March 3, 2026) – Albaugh Specialty Products has generously donated $5,000 to the GCSAA Foundation, the philanthropic organization of the Golf Course Superintendents Association of America (GCSAA), to support the new Col. John Morley Centennial Campaign.

GCSAA will turn 100 on Sept. 13, 2026, and it has embarked on a Centennial fundraising campaign to establish a new endowment honoring GCSAA’s founder, Col. John Morley, with a goal of raising $1 million to fund new and innovative initiatives for the next 100 years.

Albaugh Specialty Products is supporting the Centennial Campaign at the Heritage Partner Level, which recognizes donations of $5,000 or more. With this donation, Albaugh Specialty Products joins the Foundation’s Platinum Tee Club, which recognizes organizations that donate $5,000 or more annually to the GCSAA Foundation. Albaugh Specialty Products is also recognized at the Statesman Club level in the Foundation’s Cumulative Giving Program for donors who have contributed between $10,000 and $24,999 since 1987.

“We thank Albaugh Specialty Products for their donation continued support of the GCSAA Foundation,” GCSAA CEO Rhett Evans said. “By contributing to the Centennial Campaign, they are showing their commitment to helping shape the next century of the industry and the game.”

Albaugh Specialty Products is a division of Albaugh LLC, a global leader in crop protection products.

“Albaugh Specialty Products is proud to support the GCSAA Foundation and the Col. John Morley Centennial Campaign,” said Russ Mitchell, director of Albaugh Specialty Products. “For 100 years, GCSAA has been providing superintendents with the education, resources, and professional community that they need to keep elevating the game.
