Landscapes Golf Management – operator of more than 60 golf courses and country clubs nationwide – announced its award winners during its annual conference.

In addition to the awards presentations, learning and development sessions during the four-day event included wisdom from keynote speakers Bruce Rasmussen, retired Athletic Director at Creighton University and Kirsten Bernthal Booth, women’s volleyball coach at Creighton University and President of the American Volleyball Coaches Association.  The power of listening, caring and accountability were prevailing themes.

“Landscapes Golf Management stands for excellence and a culture-first mantra,” says Tom Everett, President of Landscapes Golf Management.  “Our conference celebrates teamwork, camaraderie, thought leadership and innovation which optimize performance at our golf courses and country clubs.”

  • The Broadlands Golf Course (Broomfield, Colo.) was honored as “Facility of the Year” for all-around achievement in guest services, operations, course conditions, marketing, sales and financial returns.  Community relations via hosting a STEM-based learning lab for grade-school science students, refreshing the clubhouse and creating a new outdoor dining program helped The Broadlands realize strong operating profits.
  • Three Crowns Golf Club (Casper, Wyo.) won “Innovator of the Year” for its food-and-beverage creativity.  It has become a popular community gathering destination not only on the pristine golf course but at The Refinery, the new restaurant in the remodeled clubhouse.  Three Crowns embodies Landscapes Golf Management’s “Find a Way” core value.
  • Leah Dickerson, Platteview Golf Club (Bellevue, NE.) was named “General Manager of the Year.”  Under her leadership, the operation achieved marketing leading status in events, food and beverage and course conditions resulting in record-high membership, revenue and profit.  Dickerson’s longstanding career at Landscapes Golf Management saw her ascend from beverage cart attendant while attending college to assistant F&B manager, membership and event sales director, and ultimately to general manager seven years ago. 
  • Doug Hausman, Dakota Dunes Country Club (Dakota Dunes. SD.)  is “Superintendent of the Year.”  His 33 years at this operation saw him first assist course designer Arnold Palmer in 1991.  To this day, playing conditions and the property at large are immaculate, earning media-bestowed praise for the “best greens, tees and fairways” despite challenging weather elements.
