Abstract/Contents:Profiles Stanley Grigsby, 58-year member of the grounds crew at Baton Rouge Country Club in Louisiana. Highlights Grigsby's career at the club stating that, "he is as much a part of the course as the trees...and the grass, which he has mowed, watered and cared for since 1947." States that "Grigsby arrives at 5:30 a.m. Monday through Friday to open the gates to the maintenance yard." Explains that "in 1989, Grigsby was given a retirement party and a watch...but after a week of idleness, Grigsby came back to work."
