The Tee Party is proud to join one of the legendary golf icons with one of the classic courses in Western Mass. We are proud to honor Paul Quinn, at Twin Hills Country Club in Longmeadow, MA. Paul has been serving the Western Mass golf community at Longmeadow Country Club as Director of Golf Operations and is going into his 47th year of employment at LCC! A former standout collegiate golfer at North Adams State and now retired school teacher (35 years of service at Holy Name Elementary, Chestnut Junior High, and Agawam Junior High) Paul has dedicated his life to promoting the game of golf. He has supervised and trained thousands of caddies at LCC, many who have gone on become leaders in our community. Paul is still very active in the Francis Ouimet Scholarship Fund and has devoted his time on the selection committee to offer scholarships to deserving college bound students who are employed at golf facilities in WMASS. In addition to his caddie responsibilities, Paul has also meticulously operated tournaments, managed daily play and has been a true gentleman of the game. Paul has also donated his time to being scorekeeper for several years at the WMASS High School golf championship. We are proud to add Paul's name to the legendary list of past Honorees.
