MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT

Michael Herzog
Greetings,

Wow! What a start to the year. Most clubs I spoke to have opened their courses around the last week of March. A lot better start this year then last. I hope everyone who was able to attend the MN PGA Section Assistant’s spring meeting found it to be a success like I did. Special thanks to Mike Malone, Peer Finstad and the staff at Ridges at Sand Creek for hosting this year’s Assistant’s spring meeting. As well as our presenters, Steve Fessler, Tim Jochim, Rory Luck, Jay Meyerhoff, Eddie Wynne, Matt Just and Dr. Grant Norland.

MN PGA Assistant’s Tournament Update
Our tournament schedule is complete and is posted under the Section Event schedule. Our first event is to take place on Monday, April 23rd at Somerby Golf Club, in Byron, MN. With the early start to the year, I know the course will be in great condition! Cost for the event is $75.00 and the deadline to sign up is Friday, April 20th. If you have not already please make sure you fill out your Assistant’s Membership application form and get it faxed into Debi at the Section Office.
