Greenlight Advisors, developer of GolfClubBenchmarks.com welcomes Metro Parks Tacoma’s Meadow Park Golf Course to its growing list of municipal, public, and private golf clubs. By participating in the golf club benchmark service, Meadow Park can now compare their courses’ financial and operational results with regional and national courses across the country.
“We are thrilled to have Meadow Park Golf Course Manager Chris Goodman and his team at Meadow Park partner with us on our mission to help public and private golf course leaders collaborate, prosper and grow,” said Michael Suglich, CPA, and Managing Partner at Greenlight Advisors. “We believe our golf club benchmark software will help Chris and his team identify and leverage our best-in-class financial and operational golf metrics to guide Meadow Park Golf Course towards future success.”
Meadow Park is a championship 18, executive 9, and a GRAA Top 50 driving range that highlights the best teachers and coaches in golf. Meadow Park is led by Manager Chris Goodman, who continues to grow and expand the sport through long-term improvements at the facility. Goodman has pioneered inclusive teaching programs and capital improvements to enhance the driving range, making it into a world-class golf training and entertainment facility.
Goodman sees success differently. “We want to create an environment where learners of all ages, people of color feeling welcomed,” Chris said. “Inclusivity and access are what sets Meadow Park apart from many other public and private courses and this partnership helps us make this vision sustainable.”
Goodman is a member of Greenlight Advisors’ newly formed Municipal Golf Advisory Board, which represents municipal golf club leaders from across the country. The board offers strategic advice and expertise to Greenlight Advisors to help them improve their GolfClubBenchmark.com software service.
The GolfClubBenchmarks.com service provides Meadow Park and other golf clubs with online access to view their courses’ financial and operational benchmark reports against regional and national averages. All the online reports use simple traffic lighting to easily identify underperforming areas of their club. This information allows course managers to measure the course’s performance with its peers, and if necessary, take steps to improve performance.
Last year, Greenlight Advisors launched a 2023 Municipal Golf Study, in partnership with Golf Inc. Magazine. The results of the 2023 study were shared with all participating courses across the country. The study produced five regional and one national best-in-class results for each course to compare their performance to.
