President Bush

In this business you never know who you might run in to.  Standing next to President Bush, Peter Moore, OSU Turfgrass International Intern student takes a break from helping maintain the White House putting green to “shoot  the breeze” with President Bush while he waited for his helicopter to arrive.  Peter from the Isle of Man (England) is interning with superintendent Scott Furlong, CGCS (far right, taller person) at the Robert Trent Jones (RJR) Golf Club in Virginia.  At RJR maintaining the White House putting green is part of the student internship experience.
