Orange Blossom Hills - Staff

Kevin SackvilleRegional Head Golf Professional

Hometown: Scarborough, Maine

I had the privilege to join The Villages golf management team in October of 2013. Prior to my arrival, I worked in the golf, sports complex and retail facility management industry. Relocating to The Villages from the Boothbay Harbor Golf Club on the Downeast coast of Maine, I also spent numerous years as a golf professional at various Marriott Hotel golf resort properties throughout the country, managed a year round ice arena and worked for the leading outdoor sporting gear retailer, LL Bean. My wife Cherie and I have two children, Caitlin and Hunter. I enjoy golf, ice hockey and am an avid outdoorsman with a passion for upland hunting and extended backcountry hiking trips. As the head golf professional at Tierra Del Sol, Hacienda Hills and Orange Blossom Hills, I look forward to serving you at these locations and welcome you to stop in and say hello anytime.

Hometown:  City, State

My wife Gail and I moved to the Villages in 2012 from Linton, Indiana. I retired from Western Southern Financial Group as a Sales Manager after 29 years. I began working with the Golf Division in March 2013 at Orange Blossom Hills as part of the outside operations staff and later into my current role as Golf Team Lead. My favorite part of my job is interacting with all of our resident golfers and all my coworkers on the OBH golf operations team. I enjoy playing golf and following all Indiana University sports.
