MAAGCS / VGCSA Assistants Forum 

Monday, November 2, 2026

Presented by



20391 Lowes Island Blvd
Sterling, VA 20165

In 2020, assistant golf course superintendents from across the Mid-Atlantic came together for a day of learning, networking, and camaraderie—and the inaugural Assistants Forum was a huge success.

Now, VGCSA Assistant Representative Jackson McMackin of The Federal Club and MAAGCS Assistant Representative Luke Simon of Chevy Chase Club are bringing the event back!

Hosted at the beautiful Trump National Washington, D.C., this year’s Assistants Forum will feature a full day of:

  • Education
  • Golf - 2 person scramble
  • Networking & Camaraderie

Whether you're looking to sharpen your skills, connect with fellow assistants, or simply enjoy a great day with colleagues from across the Mid-Atlantic, this is an event you won't want to miss.
