ABOUT THE AUCTION

For nearly two decades, the Iowa Sports Field Managers Association has annually administered a SilentAuction during trade show hours at the Iowa Turfgrass Conference and Trade Show. Since the program's inception in 2001, it has raised over $100,000 for Iowa students interested in pursuing a career in the sports turf industry. At the 2023 Silent Auction, almost $12,000 was raised!

​

Because of its overwhelming success, the Silent Auction will now be extended to include all three turfgrass industries in the hopes of providing educational opportunities for all students interested in this field of study.  We ask that you please consider donating to support the growth of our industry!
