March 23, 2009—The International Facility Management Association has formed a new council for city and country club facility managers and solutions providers.
The City & Country Clubs Council of IFMA gives facility professionals from public and private clubs offering recreational activities, event hosting and gourmet dining a network to share resources, connect with other professionals and benefit from continuing education courses, says IFMA .
City & Country Clubs Council members can connect with each other through IFMA’s online community server to share best practices and recommendations using discussion forums and an electronic document and media library. Members may also participate in regularly scheduled webinars, roundtable discussions and face-to-face meetings on issues impacting the industry.
The City & Country Clubs Council will hold its first official event March 22-24 in Charlottesville, VA. The program will include sessions on city and country club facility management focusing specifically on alternative energy solutions, sustainability options and professional development opportunities.
Membership in the new council is open to any IFMA member with an interest or background in city and country clubs, whether public or private. For more information, see the Web site.
