Snow mold field day at Treetops Golf Course

Kevin Frank<frankk@msu.edu>, and Nancy Dykema, Michigan State University Extension, Department of Plant, Soil and Microbial Sciences -

The annual MSU snow mold trial field day will be held March 31, 2016, in Gaylord, Michigan.

It’s snow mold time again, and the Treetops Snow Mold Trial Viewing is set for Thursday, March 31, 2016. We will plan to meet at 10 a.m. at the pro shop at the Treetops/Sylvan Resort, 3962 Wilkinson Road, Gaylord, MI 49732, and will travel as a group to the plots. 

Remember, we’re meeting at the pro shop, not the main resort, but the above address will get you to the property if you’re using a GPS system. From the Gaylord exit off I-75 (exit #282), proceed east through Gaylord on Route 32 until you reach Chester Road (2-3 miles east of town). Turn left (north) on Chester Road and proceed until it dead ends on Wilkinson Road (1-2 miles). Turn right (east) on Wilkinson Road and proceed about 1 mile to the resort entrance on the left. The pro shop is located on the first drive on the left. Lodging is available at the resort or at various hotels in Gaylord.

As always, be prepared for any weather conditions for the tour. Rain and cold weather gear is recommended – it is Michigan in March after all.

Feel free to bring as many associates along as you wish, but please email Nancy Dykema at dykema@msu.edu (best method) as soon as possible with the number of people attending from your organization. You can also RSVP by calling the Vargas Lab at 517-353-9082 and leaving a message. If you RSVP by phone, please leave an email address where we can send a message if the plot tour is cancelled for some reason.

If you have any questions, you can contact us at 517-353-9082. The number to Treetops is 888-873-3867. We looking forward to seeing you in Gaylord.
