At the 26th Australian Turfgrass Conference on the Gold Coast, retiring Adelaide Oval curator Les Burdett was honoured with the AGCSA’s highest honour – the Distinguished Service Award, presented in partnership with Scotts Australia. At the end-of-conference dinner, an impromptu ‘roast’ was held for Les with good friends Richard Winter (Skilled Stadium) and John Lloyd (ex-Parliament House) delving into what makes one of Australia’s most acclaimed curators tick. Here the AGCSA presents highlights from the roast in four parts.
