Ready to preach to the masses

All setup in the Capital building to spread the word on how golf is good for the environment. My partner is meeting with Senators this morning while I man the table and then later we'll switch. I'll be meeting later in the day with the House Natural Resourse Committee regarding water quality issues facing the State.
