An Era Gone By

I was reading Peter’s Blog entitled “Golf’s Vernacular” and it reminded of the great times and people I met in golf during the 60’s, 70’s and 80’s (that’s the 1900’s not 1,800’s) when many of those terms were popular. Golf, people and the times were much simpler then and as we enjoyed playing, competing and of course socializing together with our favorite past time. Besides the terminology that transpired then equally unique were the “sudo/nick” names that were anointed to […]

How the Magic is Made for your Special Day…

Twenty years ago I took on the position of a bookkeeper close to home at a Candia Woods Golf Links. Little did I know this position would then blossom into a job that I would take so much pride in and I would become apart of the lives of couples for the happiest day of their lives. With my past experience and education in interior design, flower arrangements and corporate events I was excited to take on the position as […]

Après Golf — Why not?

When I started as food and beverage director at The Oaks it was my first experience at a golf facility.  I wasn’t sure what to expect. My culinary school education taught me a great deal, but it didn’t prepare me for everything…. What kind of food does a golf course serve? Who is the clientele?
