Laurel Valley Golf Club – Agronomy Internship Opportunity

Ligonier, Pennsylvania

Laurel Valley Golf Club—an iconic course designed by Dick Wilson and later renovated by Arnold Palmer—is located just an hour southeast of Pittsburgh in the scenic Laurel Highlands. Since opening, our championship venue has hosted prestigious events including the 1965 PGA Championship, 1975 Ryder Cup, and most recently the 2023 Palmer Cup.

We are now seeking a motivated, hardworking, and career-driven Agronomy Intern who is eager to learn, grow, and ultimately pursue a future as a Golf Course Superintendent.

Why Laurel Valley?

You will be an integral part of our ongoing renovation initiatives, including the complete reconstruction of the 14th and 15th holes next season.

We are committed to your professional development—and to support that, all hired interns will receive a $1,500 signing bonus.

• Calibration and operation of sprayers and fertilizer spreaders
