By Sand Valley, Monday at 06:25 PM - Nekoosa, Wisconsin

Sand Valley is a Midwest golf destination set among the prehistoric sand dunes in central Wisconsin. Founded in 2016 by brothers Michael and Chris Keiser, this Dream Golf destination offers three award-winning golf courses, Sand Valley, Mammoth Dunes, and the Sandbox, which were modeled after the heathland golf courses of London and showcase massive, 80-foot exposed sand dunes. Much like other Dream Golf properties, such as Bandon Dunes Golf Resort and Cabot Cape Breton, Sand Valley showcases golf as it was meant to be.   Sand Valley gives guests a flavor of the region through farm-to-table culinary experiences, year-round outdoor adventures, such as fat-tire biking, hiking, and fishing, unrivaled grass court tennis and one of the very best golf experiences in the Midwest. With 12,000 acres of wide-open space across central Wisconsin, Sand Valley helps guests reconnect with the raw beauty and serenity of the outdoors.   In 2021, Michael and Chris Keiser announced the building of The Lido, a private club whose mission is to restore and preserve the great masterpiece of C.B. Macdonald. The Lido Golf Club opened on long island in 1914. Sadly, the course was demolished by the U.S. Navy after they purchased the property for use as a military base during World War II. Ever since it disappeared, the promise of The Lido has intrigued many as one of the great lost wonders of the golf world. We are excited to announce that The Lido will soon be brought back to life on a site near the entrance of Sand Valley with an opening date of 2023.   Due to growth at the resort, the common grounds around the resort will be developed and landscaped for visual aesthetics keeping with natural vegetation.  Sand Valley has an HOA for 15 rental units and The Lido will have a POA whose maintenance for common areas belongs to the Common Grounds Superintendent.    Also, construction will begin on another public course in 2022, for what will be the newest edition at Sand Valley. Tom Doak of Renaissance Golf (Pacific Dunes, Tara Iti) has been selected to design the resort’s 4th course, Sedge Valley – a 6,200-yard Par-68 inspired by the likes of Swinley Forest and St. Enodoc overseas.   Position Summary: The Common Grounds Superintendent manages all activities performed in defined common ground areas of a rapidly developing 10,000-acre property.  This includes but is not limited to general upkeep, various construction projects, landscape installs, snow removal and aquatic maintenance. The superintendent must possess leadership skills and the ability to operate equipment such as mowers, trimmers, boats, snow blowers, plows, tractors, hoses, skid steers, excavators, and spray applicators.  The superintendent will lead pest control resort wide.  The superintendent is enthusiastic with guests, employees, contractors, and owners.  They give instructions to crew members and ensure every task meets company standards. Occasionally, they may create simple designs and layouts depending on clients' requests and the use of the space.  The superintendent will frequently provide projections including but not limited to labor, materials, equipment rental, etc.
