Upon his recent retirement and in honor of Dr. A. J. Powell’s years of service and dedication to the turfgrass industry in Kentucky and beyond, the University of Kentucky turfgrass research center at Spindletop is being named for him. To formalize the naming, a sign will be constructed on site. Dr. Powell, a long-time supporter of STMA and turf managers everywhere, received the Dr. William H. Daniel Founders Award in 2004 for his pioneering efforts and long-term support of STMA.
