Staff
MEET OUR GREENSKEEPER - ZACH BURRIS
Zach Burris has been hired as equipment maintenance and greenskeeper effective March 2.
Zach succeeds Jarrod Miller, who resigned in November to pursue his contracting business. David Young stepped up to maintain the course in the interim.
Zach has managed the T-Bar Ranch Kennel, performed grounds maintenance and assisted in farming and ranching operations in Havana for 15 years. He moved to Havana three years ago to assist his father with cattle. His hobbies include hunting, fishing, cooking and spending time with family and friends.
Although he is not currently a golfer, Zach plans to pick up the game. “I’m excited for this opportunity to learn greenskeeping on the job,” Zach said. “With guidance from Jarrod, club members and Ron Brown, I plan to continue to improve course conditions to help grow the Club.”
Especially during his first season, members with resources, skills and knowledge will play a vital role in bringing Zach up to speed. Please welcome Zach and let him know how and when you can assist. Contact him in person, call or text 620-879-2055.
