Abstract/Contents: | Profiles Dwayne Mcallister, supervisor of Sports Fields and Integrated Pest Management for the town of Oakville, Ontario. Explains that Mcallister and his team "maintain 56 irrigated fields, two artificial, one cricket pitch, and assist with the community-run bowling green." Claims that the biggest challenge is "balancing permitting hours with down time for maintenance," and that the most satisfying part is "to look at the address section of an email and see that the Mayor, Commissioner, Director, and Manager have all been notified that frontline staff did a great job." States that the biggest misconception about his job is that they take the winter off. Includes information about his family, hobbies, favorite past times, and how he thinks the industry has changed over the years. |
