Through Mike's encouragement my wife and I donate hundreds of hours a year on course beautification. Without Mike at Northern Hills I'm not sure our hearts will be in it any longer. Please reconsider Mike's future at Northern Hills!

Everyone makes mistakes in life period! I’m a perfect example. Give my good friend his career back. No reason for any of this BS. This makes NO SENSE. Mike is the face of Northern and I’ve already been told by many that there won’t be as many members playing there if Mike doesn’t return. DO THE RIGHT THING!!!

Michael's connection to Northern Hills is truly unique. He took over as the golf professional after his father, and remarkably, the two of them are the only club professionals in the history of Northern Hills Golf Course. That kind of continuity is extremely rare and has helped make Michael and his family an important part of the identity and history of the course.

Mike runs the most highly attended men’s league in the city of Rochester! The Northern Hills Men’s league is successful due to his leadership and the relationships he’s built over the years. It is a special group of people from all walks of life that Mike caters to and makes feel comfortable being there and participating in men’s league. He is a staple in the Rochester golf community and should be given a fair chance to continue his position.

It will not be good if Mike doesn't come back, Mike is the key component out at Northern Hills. He's the reason we have such a great Mens Club. People deserve second chances.

Mike Manahan has helped us run our Liz Quackenbush tournament for 6 years and he has been a big support. We love seeing him when we golf at Northern Hills.

I am 41 years old and have been playing golf at northern hills since I was a kid. The Northern hills course, men’s club and identity to me has always been a Manahan face behind it, more than just some guy behind a counter greeting us patrons on the front and back end of each round. Mike is now what I consider a dear friend, knowing him and his father over the years is absolutely the reason I have considered Northern hills my “home course”… And I know I’m not the only one to share those values.

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!
