John Meeske Biography :

John Meeske received his bachelor's degree in Hotel and Restaurant Management from Washington State University, before earning an MBA from Michigan State University with a focus on finance and hospitality management.

John's professional career has largely been focused and dedicated toward the ownership, management, marketing, financing and repositioning of Destination Resorts & Clubs. This career has seen John accumulate a wealth of experience through his involvement in a diversity of properties and facilities within the resort and hospitality industry. His areas of concentration have included golf, ski, tennis, conference and marina resorts, resort clubs, resort development projects, and destination restaurants at a variety of market levels.

He was hired to lead and nurture the development of "ClubResorts", a newly formed division of ClubCorp that would focus predominantly on the resort industry. The ClubResorts division (now called The Pinehurst Company), was responsible for making resort acquisitions, turning around resorts considered to be "fallen angels", building profits, adding developments, repositioning, refinancing, and upgrading a variety of resort properties.

As President of ClubResorts, John was chiefly responsible for injecting the resort perspective into the company's private club business and along with Jerry Dickenson's (COO) club background with ClubCorp blending the two distinctive cultures into one protocol. This prestigious division of the ClubCorp Company experienced unprecedented success with several resorts and resort clubs such as Pinehurst Resort & Club, The Homestead Resort & Club, Barton Creek Resort & Club, Quail Hollow Resort & Club and several regional properties.

In addition to the ownership and/or operation of resort properties (particularly while President and deal-maker for ClubResorts), John has also negotiated with, conducted feasibility studies on, and developed business and marketing plans for over 300 resorts in the U.S., Canada, Caribbean Islands, Hawaii, Mexico, and Europe.

Mr. Meeske is Director of the Center for Resort & Club Business at Methodist College. Through the Reeves School of Business, The Professional Golf Management, Professional Tennis Management, The Center for Resort and Club Business at Methodist, and the strategic and financial assistance given by The Pinehurst Company, John is laboring to create the world's first and finest program dedicated to destination resorts and clubs in the nation.
