Thursday was the last day of work for our assistant superintendent, Joey Hickok. Joey came to work with us in January of 2013 after earning his bachelors degree. He had worked a summer with us a few years prior to his graduation, so it was an easy decision for me to hire him. His work ethic stood out to me as one of his biggest assets. He grew and progressed with us over 21 months and became a great assistant superintendent.
Unfortunately he decided to move to Acworth and when a job presented itself, he needed to take it so he could move.
The biggest compliments I could give Joey is that I had no worries about the way the course was managed whenever I had to be off property, and Georgia National is a better golf course now than it was 21 months ago because he chose to work here.
