Clearing Greens of Slush |
“Respect is earned not given" is one of the
oldest management sayings.
After nine years with the Greywolf Golf Course, Chad
Thomlinson has decided to leave for another opportunity. He will be taking over as General Manger and
Director of Golf at the Highwood Golf Club, in High River Alberta.
Chad spent nine years at Greywolf, one as Associate Professional and
five as Head Professional. In 2009, Chad
earned the position of Director of Golf.

Chad’s met the challenges that Greywolf presents head
on. He did this while supporting his
team of managers, supervisors, and staff.
He fostered an environment where staff shared ideas, celebrated success,
and resolved problems as a team. There
was no job that Chad would not do, whether it was working on the grease trap or
constructing a float for a parade. He
worked with and alongside the staff. I
personally will not forget the support Chad gave me when there were challenges
with our greens in 2009. He earned my respect then and continued to earn it every
day we worked together.
