I am very excited to introduce to you the new Northwest region webpage. I hope you will bookmark this page and check in regularly to see what's happening across the region. My goal is to increase a sense of community across the eight states and seven chapters within our region.
I will be sharing stories from my visits throughout the year and highlighting your fellow members who are making a difference. I hope to hear from you too! If you have a story or any information you believe would be beneficial to your peers, please let me know. In my previous position as the superintendent at Stone Creek Golf Club, I was a frequent blogger on
Stonecreeksuper.blogspot.com and am now looking forward to getting back in the swing of it.
This post is to designed to serve as an introduction, but I would also like to get right to business and urge you all to keep Colorado's Tracy Richard in your thoughts. Tracy is superintendent at Common Ground Golf Course in Aurora and is a past president of the RMGCSA. Tracy went into cardiac arrest on September 12th in the midst of the flooding catastrophe. Tracy has been in intensive care since then and has recently been moved to a new hospital to continue his rehabilitation. Tracy's course was completely under water and has now just nine holes open for play. The members of the RMGCSA have come together to support Tracy as well as other members who were affected by the flooding. Tracy's rehabilitation can be followed on the Caring Bridge website at:

Please bookmark this Northwest page and check back regularly for regional updates, resources, forum discussions, and of course, my blog!
