Engaging with nontraditional users of extension through community development efforts can expand program outreach. Members of UK's OSHER lifelong learning institute expressed interest in working with extension to improve turf used for their croquet class. Cooperative Extension, Osher leaders, and City of Morehead Parks and Recreation partnered on an educational demonstration intended to show recommended practices on site prep, establishment, management, and weed control for bermudagrass sports turf use. Educational efforts included remote and site visits between extension specialists and cooperating partners and hands-on experience implementing recommended practices. Volunteers provided approximately 10 hours on seeding, watering, and weed control efforts. All participants in the demonstration have said or inferred they learned a lot about all aspects of establishing and maintaining bermudagrass. Parks and Recreation workers holding pesticide certification gained specific knowledge related to labeled herbicide applications and sprayer calibration.
