As we continue to celebrate our Centennial, today weโ€™re honoring Rod Thompson, our esteemed 34th Section President (1990-1991). From humble beginnings watching professionals practice across from his childhood home to becoming a distinguished leader in golf education, Rod's journey ...exemplifies dedication to the game.

Speaking of dedication to the game, in 1978 Rod took a position as the Head Professional at Kenwood Golf and Country Club in Bethesda, MD. When he arrived at Kenwood there was no practice range, so Rod and his assistant dug trenches by hand to divert a stream and eventually created a practice range and teaching area.

Throughout his career, Rod has been recognized as a two-time MAPGA Golf Professional of the Year, Club Fitter of the Year, and among Titleist's Top 100 Club Fitters in the United States. His philosophy of "a never-ending search for knowledge, attention to detail, and willingness to help everyone" continues to inspire golf professionals across our section. Thank you, Rod, for your invaluable contributions to the MAPGA! #mapga100

Today, we honor Hank Majewski, PGA, our 33rd Section President and a true champion of junior golf. From his humble beginnings as a 10-year-old caddie in 1940s Baltimore to becoming the Head PGA Professional at Hobbit's Glen Golf Club, Hank transformed facilities and selflessly promoted junior ...golf. His determination was perhaps best demonstrated in 1981 when he successfully campaigned to reinstate Howard County's high school golf program after it had been cut. Now, the โ€œHank Majewski Scholarshipโ€ awards one scholarship a year to a graduating high school student as a way to honor his memory and his legacy promoting junior golf achievement. The MAPGA Junior Golf Tour has also named a tournament in his honor.

Serving the MAPGA as Treasurer, Vice President, and President (1984-1989), Hank's leadership elevated our Section and the game itself. His many accolades, including 1988 MAPGA Professional of the Year and 1988 National PGA Professional of the Year, culminated in his 2005 induction into the PGA Golf Professional Hall of Fame. As we celebrate our Centennial, we salute Hank Majewski as his dedication to the game continues to inspire us today. #mapga100
