TURTINEN COMMUNICATIONS
Turtinen Communications, Inc. was founded by the late Ralph Turtinen in Wayzata, Minnesota in 1965. Ralph bought himself a 1964 and a half little red mustang and he was off and running! The business evolved from a public relations and publishing firm to a non-profit association management company as the Turtinen's served as the business office for the Minnesota Bakers Association and the Trans-Mississippi Golf Association. In the mid-80s, the Turtinen's added a typesetting and graphic arts shop which was very successful until personal computers were made attainable to everyone. In the 90s, the Turtinen's added the Minnesota Golf Course Superintendents' Association to its client base. Currently, Scott and Jeff manage and serve on the Boards of the Minnesota Park and Sports Field Management Association, and the Minnesota Turf and Grounds Foundation.
