Meet Bill Perry our mechanic

Bill Perry is our mechanic here at Glendale CC and has been on the job since 1967. That's 45 years of service! He spends a lot of time keeping all of mowers sharp and adjusted. If the mowers don't cut right, the greens don't putt right either. During the playing season when the greens are smooth and fast, you can thank Bill for keeping the greens mowers running like a Swiss watch. There isn't anything that Bill can't fix or hasn't repaired in his time here at Glendale. Besides maintaining our fleet of equipment by himself, (most operations our size have an assistant mechanic also) he is also an expert at running heavy equipment. Loaders, dozers, trenchers, and anything else that moves dirt is in his wheelhouse. He also is a pretty good shaper when it comes to building greens. Bill took the architects plans and did all the shaping work on the putting green when we rebuilt it in 1992. He has also built several other greens and tees on the course. Bill works hard behind the scenes to help produce the quality conditions on the course. Thanks Bill for everything you do here at Glendale!
