Abstract/Contents: | Discusses the potential impact of the golf industry on the economy. Presents the Virginia economic impact study conducted by SRI International. Reports that, "the study confirmed that Virginia's golf industry contributes $3.1 billion annually to the state's economy." Suggests that, "the kind of information contained in impact studies can be used to block legislation and regulations that could prove detrimental to the golf businesses." Strongly encourages, "every operator to join forces with their local PGA [Professional Golfers' Association] section and superintendents' association to conduct similar studies in their area." |
