By Morris County Golf Club, September 11 - updated Thursday at 10:07 AM - Morristown, New Jersey

We are excited to be hosting the 106th NJ State Open Championship this upcoming July (2026)!  It will be a great opportunity for a summer intern to dive into tournament preparation and execution! Morris County Golf Club is a classic 18 hole golf course designed by CB Macdonald/Seth Raynor.  The club itself was established in 1894, with its current layout of holes being finished by Raynor around 1916.  Our goal in the grounds department is to create a partnership with an individual that wants to learn more about the turf industry and the day to day needs for golf course turf management.  We intend this to be a true partnership of respect and opportunity for growth.  We know an intern can become a valued part of our management team throughout a summer season and we want to support an individual through that experience no matter what their current skills are.  A summer intern can expect to learn more about applications (fertilizers, fungicides, herbicides, etc.), mowing practices, course setup, tournament preparations, cultural practices, business management, project management, moisture management, and crew/team leadership.  Besides some exciting renovation work out on the golf course over the last 2 years, we also have moved into an updated world class maintenance facility.  The new improvements include renovations throughout our existing areas alongside brand NEW administration and environmental buildings. I am excited for what Morris County Golf Club has to offer potential interns in regards to quality of work life, hands on experience, and project management.  All of our current goals and projects will culminate in the exciting opportunity to host the 2026 NJ State Open, and we are looking for the right candidate to work alongside us towards our goals.      Every season our goal for an intern is to allow freedom and flexibility so they can focus in areas where they need additional exposure and training.  If you are looking to gain something specific out of the upcoming season please feel free to reach out and see how we could work together.
