Trudi Tavares

Superintendant

Trudi began working at The Harvest Golf Club in 1992.  During construction, Trudi was exposed to many facets of course construction and turf management, including seeding of our bent grass fairways, walking for miles, fertilizing, and afterward, learning the intricacies of our elaborate irrigation system.  Throughout time, she became a skilled equipment operator and irrigation/fertility specialist.  In 1999, Trudi took a center role in managing our computerized irrigation system consisting of 1300 on-course sprinkler heads, while also taking many educational courses as a technician.

In 2012, Trudi attended the University of Guelph, where she received a Turf Management Diploma.  Furthering her education and knowledge, Trudi has also successfully completed a plethora of courses that have helped shape her into the professional she is today. These include her Level 1 & 2 Irrigation Design, Certified Irrigation Technician, and Rainbird Golf Certified Central Control Training.  She has also received her Pesticide Applicator and Landscape Irrigation Auditor Certificate among others.

Trudi’s dedication to education and professional growth has demonstrated her commitment to the golf industry, the Harvest, and ultimately, to becoming our Superintendent.   

Since the start of the new irrigation installation, Trudi has taken an active role in entering all new data for the new Rain Bird Cirrus Pro Operator system.  We are highly confident that with her experience and understanding of the new system, and her strong desire to ensure THGC provides the highest level of conditioning and playability, The Harvest will be in good hands for many years to come!
