Committee Overview

The New England PGA Board of Directors depend on all of the Committees for suggestions and reports on the various activities of the Section.

In an era of declining spare time, the work of the individual committee members should not go unnoticed… these PGA members are giving back to their Association by donating their time and their expertise. Visit the individual committee pages listed at the bottom of this page to view the members of each committee.
