Don Tyre was hired on to Juniper Hill Golf Course in May of 1983. Don has been with the maintenance staff the longest out of everyone on the crew. Don's primary duty on the golf course is changing the cups (pin placements) and moving the tees. He has been through the high's and low's of this golf course and seen a lot of changes in his years here. He is also apart of the men's association and started playing out here on a regular basis this past year as he moved over from the country club. I think with him playing out here after he has finished work, has given me extra eyes on some little things that we might miss throughout the day. Don pretty much works 7 days a week, as he keeps an eye on the greens with concerns to disease and hot spots. Don has a lot of passion and desire for Juniper Hill Golf Course and takes a lot of pride in what he does. Just this past fall, Don was inducted into the Frankfort Parks & Recreation Hall of Fame. He has been a wonderful addition to the staff, as he is very dependable, hardly ever misses a day, and can be counted on to get a job done. Don has and will always be an assest to this course.
