We had a long-time employee leave this summer.  I am looking to replace him with an assistant equipment technician or an assistant superintendent.  This is a full-time, year round position.  During the winter months, you will be performing a great deal of preventative maintenance on equipment.  During the summer months, you will split time between working on the golf course and assisting our head equipment technician, who has been here for over 50 years.  Ideally, the new, assistant equipment technician will be able to take over as the head equipment technician within 1-2 (?) years, as our lead equipment technician will retire at some point.   We have a wide range of equipment here....mostly Toro, but there is some Kubota, Ventrac, Salsco, Jacobsen, and other makes of equipment.  Grinding experience would be ideal.  We own Foley grinding equipment. The club has 4 Har-Tru tennis courts, a short game practice area, and a really nice croquet court. Ekwanok was built in 1899 and designed by Walter Travis and John Duncan Dunn.
