Abstract/Contents:Profiles Tim O'Neill, superintendent of Darien Country Club and the 2004 Golf Course Superintendents Association of America (GCSAA) president. Details O'Neill's beginning in the golf course industry, stating that "he and each of his seven siblings worked as teen-agers [teenagers] at Pawtucket Country Club. O'Neill soon shifted from caddying to the maintenance crew, and while too young to work mechanized equipment, he proved adept at raking, bunker work and other manual labor." Concludes that "during his tenture as GCSAA president, O'Neill wants to ensure that the board follow [follows] through on its plan to grow membership in the association, help pay for superintendents, increase member satisfaction, and find ways to get more greenkeepers and qualified buyers to the annual Golf Industry Show."
