I have spent most of my adult life in marketing & advertising from radio to automotive and currently coordinating promotional activities for Marco’s Pizza Florida. My exposure to the game of golf came early in my childhood when my Uncle Pete would occasionally come by on Saturdays to ask if I would like to go out to the course and hit a few balls. After many terrible attempts to hit the ball something miraculous happened I HIT A SHOT and that’s all it took to spark my interest in the game. Later in life I moved to Hilton Head Island and found myself locked in the game of which now I enjoy playing regularly with my wife. One day my neighbor approached and asked if I’d be interested in joining the MARION COUNTY JUNIOR GOLF board helping children develop an interest in the game and the values that go along with it. The idea of being a member made me think of what uncle Pete introducing me to the game meant and how much better my life is with the game of golf. Thanks Uncle Pete.
