Tom Lewis from our staff asked me a few months ago about possibly volunteering for the staff at Bellerive CC during the PGA Championship. I gave him the contact information and he was set. He worked 4 evening shifts as well as doing his duties here at Glen Echo. He had a great experience, rubbing elbows with superintendents and volunteers from all over the country and world. Everyone talked about the efficiency and use of resources during the week. Tom was involved with bunker clean up and clean up around the greens. From what I saw Sunday in person, the course was in outstanding shape. They did not get finished with their work/fun until 1:30 Friday morning from the rain delay they experienced last Thursday.
