Mike has been a great asset of Rochester golf community and doing great work to lead the men's league at Northern Hills. I'd like to have him back to Northern Hills.

Mike’s dedication to the game, his staff, and club members is the exact reason Northern Hills is Rochester’s top city course. His leadership drives the heavily attended events and tournaments that set this course apart. While we acknowledge his recent personal mistakes, they should not compromise his professional career. Removing Mike will deeply disrupt our community and negatively impact this course. We ask that you separate personal matters from professional excellence, pardon Mike please.

The city is making a huge mistake and hopefully reconsiders its decision. Without Mike Manahan as Club Pro, The Northern Hills Men’s Club may not survive.

We shouldn't judge mistakes harshly unless you've never made any.

In life we have all made choices some good and some not so good. We could all use a 2nd chance at life Mike has always treated others and myself with respect. I truly enjoy coming to the club he makes my day with the way he treats everyone who plays Northern!

I have been member of Northern Hills golf club for more than 12 years.. Mike is irreplaceable asset to Northern Hills golf club. Without him it will not be the same. I will not be surprised if we loose some of the members of men’s club. We are all humans and we all make mistakes. Mike deserves a second chance. I strongly propose we reconsider the decision and bring him back as head of Northern Hills golf club.

Mike has shown support, professionalism, and care for all golfers at Northern Hills and the course itself for the 20+ years I’ve been there. He deserves reconsideration.

Based on my experience over the last several years of golf in the Rochester community Mike is the best man for the job.

Manny is the reason I make the drive from Minneapolis to play at Northern. He is a hard working Professional and a Gentleman.

Parks and Rec has chosen to ignore 50 years of Northern Hills history and the Manahan legacy with this decision. Mike has been the heart of Northern Hills for decades and is one of the biggest reasons I and hundreds of other’s love the game of golf and love Northern Hills men’s club. I urge you to reconsider your decision for the betterment of the Rochester golf community.

Mike is what makes Northern worth playing, the community he has developed there is second to none!

Mike is an asset to Northern Hills and Rochester golf. Not retaining Mike as the Head Golf professional at Northern Hills would be a massive mistake.

The Golf culture/fellowship that has been built due to Mike's leadership at Northern Hills is second to none. I have been a Men's club member for over a decade now and with the decision the city has made I will be looking to play out of town next year.

Mr Manahan has been a great addition to the Rochester golf community. We are all human and everyone makes mistakes. And as adults we have to learn from them. I feel like we should give him the chance to improve and grow past this unfortunate situation
