Jeff Wolford
TREASURER
(Grounds Maintenance Coordinator with Citrus County)
Jeff Wolford
My sports field career started at Citrus County School District. Over these 4 years with the School District, I have learned the basics of sports field and grounds maintenance. The School District allowed me to expand my skills by creating an agronomic and maintenance program. Me and my staff manage beaches, boat ramps, cemeteries and four sports complexes. My CFSTMA Membership and participation is very important. It allows me to meet other individuals in the same career, receiving education from industry leaders, sharing experiences and keeping current with the industry news. CFSTMA has helped me grow professionally and I want to bring CFSTMA into our Grounds Department staff at Citrus County.
