Sal Cioffi Award

GET IN TOUCH

In 2000 the Board of Directors of the Connecticut Grounds Keepers Association established an award to honor Sal Cioffi, one of our founding members. Sal’s direction and foresight created the Connecticut Grounds Keepers Association, and he helped build the foundation for professionalism and accreditation in our industry. Our Board of Directors selects an award recipient annually. This is our highest honor for an individual’s contributions to our Association and State.
