New Manager Hired
Jason Marvelli has been hired as Director of Golf and Clubhouse Manager. He is already hard at work getting ready for the coming golf season. Jason will manage all clubhouse operations as well as work with the golf committee on tournaments and other golf activities. I know that Jason would like to get to know all of the members, so be sure to introduce yourself when you see him at the club. A note from Jason is below:

Dear Members,

I wanted to take this opportunity to introduce myself and let you all know how excited I am to be taking on the role of Director of Golf/General Manager at Indianola Country Club.
I have spent the last eight years as a golf professional at Waveland Golf Course in Des Moines, being involved in every aspect of the golf business. Since becoming a PGA Member in 2001, I have been looking forward to the opportunity to utilize my skills at a facility such as yours. This is an exciting time for Indianola Country Club with the hiring of a PGA Member and the opening of the new nine holes. I have a vision of what I would like to see this club become and look forward to working with all of you to take this club to the next level.
On a personal note, I have ties to this community as I spent the first four years of my life in Indianola before moving to Newton. Also, in 1998 I married Stephanie Sheil who was born and raised in Indianola and whose parents still reside in town. Stephanie and I have two children, Jake (4) and Anna (2).
I am looking forward to a great year. I welcome the opportunity to meet all of you and discuss any ideas you may have for the upcoming season.
