Live from Wichita Kansas: Groundskeeper Chat with Ben Hartman
We squeezed in a quick game day chat with Ben Hartman, Director of Field Operations for the Wichita Wind Surge mid-season in Kansas. Ben is a friend of the series and Meg joined him and the crew for a 15 hour day, where temperatures reached the high 90's. Here's what you'll hear in this week's #GroundskeeperChat:
Breakdown of the season + game day
Ben and Jake's teamwork on the field
The foundation of a crew
The 1% of the 1%
A little bit more about our guest... Ben has been with the Wichita Wind Surge for five seasons and is an alumni of Iowa Central Turfgrass Management program. Ben was recognized as one of SFMA's Rising Stars and is a passionate advocate for our industry.
