Mark Anderson, Superintendent

Mark took his first job at Copake Country Club more than 35 years ago, when he was a cart attendant at age 12. He has seen the course transform through the hands of multiple owners and a variety of course management strategies. He has been an active member of the golf community through his participation in the National Golf Course Superintendents Association of America and the New England Golf Course Superintendents Association, of which he is a former board member. Mark took his turf-education class at Cobleskill and received his B.S. in Aviation Business Administration. Mark has transformed the course over the years using his team of employees by focusing on greens maintenance and fairway and rough display, while keeping traps and tee boxes in good shape. Mark is also a board member of the Philmont Rotary, serves as the Taconic Hills High School football coach, and is an active golfer in the community.
