The Golf Shop at Mount Brenton Golf Course in Chemainus is under new management.

Monaghan Golf Inc. announced last week that it has taken over the day-to-day operation of the Mount Brenton Golf Shop.

Mongahan Golf is a full service golf operations management company, according to a press release.

Monaghan Golf also provides professional golf management services to the Vancouver Board of Parks and Recreation at Fraserview and Langara golf courses in Vancouver and to the District of West Vancouver at Gleneagles Golf Course and Ambleside Par 3 Golf Course in West Vancouver.

The team at the Mount Brenton Golf Course is led by PGA of Canada head golf professional Andrew Hajer, formally the associate professional at Beach Grove Golf Club in Tsawwassen. Hajer was the 2012 PGA of BC Junior Golf Leader of the Year.

Jan Best, a PGA of Canada assistant golf professional, supports him at Mount Brenton.

“We are very excited about the opportunity to work with the Members and visitors at Mount Brenton to provide an outstanding golf experience,” Tom Monaghan, president of Monaghan Golf Inc., said in the release.

“The club has a strong tradition of excellence and is a fantastic layout; we look forward to continuing to provide outstanding service and make improvements to the overall golf experience.”

In operation since 1948, Mount Brenton is considered a scenic gem with plenty of creeks, ponds and towering firs, which combine to make a challenging course for every level of golfer to enjoy.

“It is going to be an exciting year at Mount Brenton,” said Hajer. “We’ve already added a new golf cart fleet, made some renovations to the Golf Shop and are working on some exciting programs and events for the coming year.”
