Lower Gwynedd Township, Pa. (May 8, 2023) — Curtis Kirkpatrick, PGA, of Indian Spring Country Club in Marlton, N.J., has been appointed to the Philadelphia PGA Section’s Board of Directors as District 1 Director, following the change of facility and District of his predecessor Kevin Duffy, PGA, as outlined in the Section by-laws, section 6.07 on vacancies: “the president shall appoint an individual to fill any such office vacancy whose term shall be the un-expired term of the vacant position on the board of directors.”

Duffy recently accepted the PGA director of golf position at Commonwealth National Golf Club in Horsham, Pa., which is located in the Section’s sixth District; he was slated to complete his second-consecutive two-year term in October.
