September through May. School, homework, back to the hustle and bustle of daily life, and of course, remembering the great times that were had at Southampton Racquet Club & Camp summer 2014. Whilst we are back in the office, it is our new maintenance team that come sun, rain, hail, wind and even snow are still at camp getting it ready for another summer. They work harder than anyone else in the off-season, so let’s meet the team; The Ray & Jay Dream Team.

IMG_2308Ray, Maintenance Director: A native of the Upper East Side in Manhattan, NY, Ray has spent the entirety of his career to date working in the Golf Course industry. With a degree in Soil Science and Turf Management, and experience as a foreman, site director, director of grounds and a superintendent of nationally recognized Golf Courses, Ray brings a wealth of theoretical knowledge and hands on experience when it comes to turf management and landscaping. With his green thumb and knowledge of local flora, SRCC’s beautiful wooded facility will be turned into a summer paradise come summer 2015! Ray is excited to join the team and work in camping.  Ray lives with his wife and two children in Westhampton, NY.

Jay’s strengths of plumbing, carpentry, and electrical skills will be put to good use in the off season as we continue to upgrade and maintain the facility ready for campers. Jay is excited to work outdoors in the fresh air and cannot wait for his first summer in the Hamptons. Jay lives with his wife and daughter in Riverhead, NY.

The new team have settled in well and we are excited for everyone to meet them in the Spring/Summer of 2015. A big thank you to Ray & Jay for all of their efforts so far.

160 days until camp…
