31 Oct Minot Park District Announces New Souris Valley Golf Course Superintendent
Minot, ND—The Minot Park District is excited to announce Cammi Campbell’s appointment as the new Souris Valley Golf Course Superintendent. With over 14 years of dedicated service to the Minot Park District, Campbell brings a wealth of experience and expertise to her new role.
Since joining the Park District in 2010, Campbell has served in various capacities, including Greens Keeper, Assistant Superintendent at Souris Valley Golf Course, and most recently, as a Horticultural Technician. Her diverse background and deep knowledge of the system make her the perfect fit to lead the continued growth and success of Souris Valley Golf Course.
Campbell holds several degrees in Horticulture Turf Management, Horticulture-Landscape Design, and Urban Forestry Technology, along with a certificate in Golf Course Grounds Technology. In addition to her academic qualifications, Campbell has been an active member of the North Central Turf Grass Association Board of Directors since 2016, serving as President for four years. Her leadership in the turf management community is widely respected, and the Minot Park District is thrilled to have her step into this critical role.
Cammi will succeed Mike Chrest, who is retiring this fall after a 39-year career with the Park District. Chrest started with the district part-time at 19 years old, mowing fairways, and has since become a driving force behind the care and development of Souris Valley Golf Course, turning it into the beloved course it is today. The Park District is grateful to Mike for his decades of dedication and commitment.
“We are incredibly grateful for the legacy Mike has built over the past 39 years and look forward to seeing Cammi continue that tradition while bringing her vision and expertise to Souris Valley,” said Elly DesLauriers, Executive Director of Minot Park District. “Her passion, knowledge, and leadership will be instrumental in maintaining and enhancing our beautiful course.”
