June 4, 2015  By  Mike Jiggens


Tom Kinsman, superintendent at Whistle Bear Golf Club in Cambridge, Ont., is being honoured by the Ontario Golf Superintendents Association on Sunday, June 6 for his efforts toward hosting the Manulife Financial LPGA Classic which ends June 6.

The Superintendent Recognition program was initiated in 2003 to recognize superintendents who host significant tournaments at their respective courses. The host superintendent is presented with a plaque during the awards ceremonies, recognizing their work and dedication in preparing for and managing successful tournaments.

This program has been well received by both competitors and the Golf Association of Ontario, and is integral to promoting the dedication of the golf course superintendent and their professionalism within the golf industry.
 

The presentation is to be made between 2 and 4 p.m. at the golf course by OGSA director Cory Janzen, superintendent at Westmount Golf & Country Club.
