Welcome to KCountry


Hey everyone.  My name is Cameron Watt and I am one of the assistants at the KCountry golf course.  I am new this year and I started work at Kananaskis on April 16th.  It has been a unique, interesting and fun experience to say the least.

I moved to Kananaskis from Kelowna, British Columbia.  Including Kananaskis, I have been a part of 4 different golf courses working with the turf care department.  I came from Two Eagles Golf Course & Academy.  I was the assistant there for almost 5 seasons.  Before that I was at Predator Ridge Golf Resort and Sunset Ranch Golf Course.

I have been growing grass for 12 seasons.  Each and every golf course has been an awesome experience.  They all have helped me develop my skills and personality in becoming a turfgrass manager.  Kananaskis is no different.  My roles and responsibilities here are unlike any other I've had at other courses.  With the help of my new friend, James Bryce, who is our other assistant, I have been able to quickly familiarize myself with the operation and the property.

I will miss all my friends and family, especially my fiancĂ© Shelley, who will be living in Kelowna for another year.  I do however appreciate all their support and happiness for my new experience and journey in becoming a golf course superintendent.  Thank you all!!

Hopefully we will try and update this blog frequently, but for now I wanted to introduce myself to everyone that follows.  Have a great season!
