VOL. 34, NO. 1
Roles change with key players remaining the same CHRIS ALTESE, PGA DIRECTOR OF GOLF Thank you, Gregg! Gregg Altese, member of the Diamondhead Country Club Golf Professional staff for the past 10 years, will be changing roles as we enter the 2017 season. Gregg joined Diamondhead after working as a Golf Professional for The Oaks Golf Club for six years (1999-2006.) He will continue serving our DCC members and guests by instructing, assisting in the golf shop, and working with
our junior golf program. During Gregg’s stint as a full time DCC Golf Professional, our club has seen many improvements and became the host to many of our area’s top golf events. His dedication and hard work with our award-winning junior golf program helped DCC send five junior golfers to the U.S. Kids World Championships just this past summer with hopes of sending even more in 2017. Our club owes a huge debt of gratitude to Gregg for all he has helped us
accomplish at DCC since 2007. Laura McCann, PGA Professional and Diamondhead resident, will be stepping up in her responsibilities. Laura has been employed at DCC since October 2014 as an instructor primarily for the Golf Academy of Diamondhead. Having played college golf at Louisiana State University and four years as a touring professional on the SBC Futures Golf Tour including the 1995 U.S. Women’s Open, Laura brings with her a vast amount
of experience. Laura has served as a golf professional at both Great Southern Golf Club and The Oaks Golf Club. She earned her Class A PGA Member-
