Did you know we have a NEW Golf Operation Manager? We would like to welcome Patrick Oropallo and share a message from him: “I can’t wait for spring! Spring means the beginning of another golf season at beautiful Oak Knoll Golf Course. I have many fond memories of lazy days on the links, chasing my ball around the rolling hills and sweeping fairways of Oak Knoll Golf Course. In fact, Oak Knoll GC played such an integral role in my life that I consider it a home. My mission is to share this great game with the youth of Ashland so that they too can experience what I did. On the course I developed friendships that last to this day, I have learned many lessons from golf such as patience, hard work, persistence, honesty and integrity to name a few. I have developed junior golf programs that are fun, affordable and even free in an effort to spread the game of golf to as many young people possible. Visit our website oakknollgolf.org or call us at 541.482.4311 to learn more. I look forward to sharing my home with you.”
