“The Town of South Hadley retained Allen DePuy to facilitate our issuance of a Golf Course Management Request for Proposal on our municipally owned property. Allen’s golf operations knowledge and network within the golf community proved invaluable for us to get the maximum exposure possible on the project. One of the benefits of using Allen is simply his industry view of golf.  It is one thing to see what is happening at our municipal course and even possibly peak over the fence at some of our neighboring courses, but we did not and do not have the ability recognize trends in the industry or see innovations as quickly as someone like Allen will and make the adjustments to benefit from those trends. The Town values Allen’s insight to a level that we intend to retain him for ongoing services moving forward.”   - Michael Sullivan – Town of South Hadley, Administrator

"Physical improvements to the course, clubhouse and F&B service have improved - all to the delight of the members. Most importantly, membership doubled to over 400 members in only 18 months. These advances were due to the effectiveness of Allen DePuy. His 30 years in the industry as a site operator and manager of golf course operations provided the insight we needed to get our business back on course."  — Richard Sherwood  - Club President, Yardley Country Club

“Pease Development Authority first retained Allen DePuy over a decade ago to provide consulting services to our then financially challenged golf operation.  Allen’s critical insights into our business allowed us to immediately become more profitable and competitive in our marketplace.  So when the opportunity presented itself again to seek outside assistance, we again turned to Allen based on our positive past experience, and I feel comfortable recommending him to others as well.” - David Mullen, Executive Director, Pease Development Authority

As an advisor at Eagle Ridge Golf Club, Allen implemented changes to our tee sheet to reflect current business trends. Through dynamic pricing, he maximized utilization and developed sales programs to drive more golf outing business. As a result, Eagle Ridge has witnessed growth of over 5,000 (15%) rounds in one season and has enjoyed an increase in revenue. In addition to golf operations, Allen’s recommendations have been extremely helpful with dining, banquet, pro-shop, maintenance, and general sales. — Jan A. Kokes - President, The Kokes Organization   

Challenged with a financially distressed asset, deteriorated playing conditions, and lost consumer confidence at the historic Storm King Golf Club, Allen’s team systematically implemented programs to first stabilize the asset. He then implemented proper agronomic maintenance programs and created marketing strategies to grow top line revenue. We were able to focus on the divestiture of the asset with the knowledge that a professional team was overseeing our asset. - Charles McCabe - Vice President, Special Assests & Lending

East Hempfield had the good fortunate to retain Allen DePuy to conduct an audit of our business operations. His recommendations and findings proved extremely helpful for the town in making strategic changes to our operating model and grow our business.  Subsequently, when EHT needed to hire a new General Manager to lead our business, we requested Allen's further input throughout the hiring process.  Working with Allen has been easy and seamless and I would recommend his services to others. -  Cindy Schweitzer - East Hempfield Township, Township Manager
