Hours Earned: 5

Total Hours: 8 


On our second day, we could do more around the course. When we first arrived, we were greeted by more staff members who weren’t there yesterday. We met Rocky, Pat, and Joe. Pat and Joe work with maintenance and we will be working with them both over the next two weeks. We then got to take a golf cart and drive around the 18 holes and check out the lay of the land. While we did this though we chatted with many locals and worked on our golf etiquette. After that, Joe showed us how to patch divots on the range and I helped Liam and Joe as I could. And to finish the day we chatted with Derek about what our next steps were and we were able to get some nice company merchandise. I got a red Country Club of New Hampshire golf tee and Liam got white to make us official interns.

We learned how to and why they wash the batteries of the golf carts.  We also learned how to charge the carts and the types of carts they have at the course. Then Jack Robbie, Meg Patrick, and Nat Daniels came to play a round of 9 with us. We ended the day talking about what we were looking forward to tomorrow and checking in with Rocky at the bar.

Liam’s friend Jacob came to the course today too. We played games on the putting green and it felt good to be able to participate in them. Games like fewest shots to put a certain hole; I also tried to chip but I was unsuccessful in doing so. Us at lunch. The glizzy grubbage.

Reflection

Quinlan Kerr  Senior Project  Kelly Griffen-Brown  11/16/22  Weekly Reflection  In my first week of senior project, I began my “internship” at the Country Club of New Hampshire with Liam Chapman. I learned a bunch of new things and new people. As I continue to get older I begin to realize the advantage of knowing different people and learning through others' experiences. At the course this week I was able to have a ton of fun and learn at the same time.  The first thing I noticed while at the course was not actually related to golf.  At the golf course, we always drive around the course and chat with golfers. As I have done that and just being around the course I have seen the Proctor connection in full effect. So many people I have talked to have some sort of connection to Proctor. Whether they went to Proctor themselves, their child went, or they have a friend/family member who works at Proctor. I learned how impactful the Proctor connection can ...
