Recently, we hosted a film crew here at Desert Mountain who were here to film an instructional series of golf lessons for the Golf Digest Group. On Wednesday, the film crew requested to have additional hole locations cut on the 17th and 11th greens at Outlaw so their action shots could have their full effect. This was not unusual as they request-ed this earlier in the day. However, when they decided to have this done for their last action shot of the day, the maintenance crew had left for the afternoon and the only person at the maintenance facility was Marc Snyder, OLW Golf Course Super. He responded to

their request, got all of the necessary equipment and did the job himself. Even though there were no members playing those particular holes, he went a step further and painted the inside of the cups and provided the crew with an extra flag pole. He demonstrated his Spirit to Serve and Teamwork and, in turn, made us stand apart from other golf operations. This is how our team makes Desert Mountain the best in the world. It is the little things that go a long way. Thank you, Marc.

This is a story that is hard to cut short, but I will try. Seven years ago, I saw a picture of a very young looking gentleman who was going to come and work with us over at Rene-gade. I thought he is young with no bad habits, we can train him! Wrong…. from the

minute Bread Micua, REN Grill Server, walked into our restaurant, it was obvious that he was someone special. Little did I know just how much he would impact Renegade. He was the first H2B server on the dining room floor,

where he taught all of us what loyalty, dedication, customer service and responsibility really meant. Seven years have passed and he is still the smiling young man who walked into Renegade, only now he has a new title of "Supervisor". In a nutshell, Bread is a seasoned professional who we all continue to learn from on a daily basis. Bread, your crew at The Hideout just love and admire you so much for all you do for us.
