Performing Under Pressure: Groundskeeper Chat w/ Max Casper
Head Groundskeeper for the Reno Aces, Max Casper, joined us mid-season to update us on his first year in the new role. A heavy events schedule and minor league baseball can be daunting but Max shares with us his keys to success.
Here's what you'll hear in this week's Groundskeeper Chat:
- Reno Aces crew update
- Banana Ball
- Performing under pressure
- Maintaining culture and positivity during long stretches of the season
A little bit more about our guest:
Max Casper is a long-time friend of the series, Meg was one of the first people Max met after stepping off the plane and arriving to his first SFMA in Savannah. Max had been with Reno Aces for several seasons as the assistant groundskeeper before stepping in his new role as Head Groundskeeper last fall.
