Brian Macmillan
Golf Course Superintendent
Brian grew up locally in Wading River and found his passion for maintaining golf courses during a high school summer job. Enjoying working outdoors and the satisfying results of a grow in at then newly constructed Great Rock Golf Club led him to pursue a career in golf course maintenance.
Brian started his collegiate academic journey by obtaining an Associate’s degree in Turf Management while playing soccer at SUNY Delhi. He went on to complete his Bachelor of Science degree in Turfgrass at Clemson University. The technical approach at Delhi coupled with a more scientific philosophy at Clemson prepared him with a perfect mix of knowledge for what was needed to succeed moving forward.
This is Brian’s second head Superintendent position. He spent twelve years at nearby Port Jefferson Country Club gaining meaningful experience through an irrigation system installation, construction of a maintenance facility, and completion of major course renovations. Prior to Port Jeff, Brian grew in the industry as an Assistant Superintendent at Engineers Country Club and right here at St. George’s.
Brian was drawn back to St. Georges due to its engaging membership and course history. He sees great things ahead for the club. “The sky is the limit on how good this place can be. As we move forward and complete key infrastructure projects, the resulting efficiency will lead to top notch course conditioning. The history here is second to none and I believe we can add to its standing.”
