Some people visit Traverse City. Others lean all the way in.
Drawn by the things we love most—water in both its liquid and solid forms—this story is about someone who didn’t just arrive, but fully immersed himself in the community. A competitive curler and the father of nationally ranked young athletes, he found his way here and quickly found his place.
But passion alone doesn’t build something lasting. Bringing sharp business instincts, leadership experience, and exactly the right skills at exactly the right time, he’s helped elevate the Traverse City Curling Club into one of the premier curling facilities in the country. This episode of The (mostly) Traverse City Podcast is about showing up, leaning in, and what happens when the right people meet the right place.
