In this episode of the GCSAA Podcast — recorded live from the soon-to-be-opened clubhouse at The Dunes Golf and Tennis Club on Sanibel Island, Fla. — we sit down with Roy Jones and Kyle Sweet, CGCS, to discuss their experiences as golf course superintendents who experienced Hurricane Ian one year ago. Jones oversees The Dunes, while Sweet is in charge of maintenance at The Sanctuary Golf Club. Both facilities sustained significant damage from Ian, so we talk about the storm, its impact on them both personally and professionally, where they and their golf courses are on the road to recovery, and lessons learned from their experiences.

The GCSAA Podcast is presented in partnership with Envu.
