KemperSports recently announced Kristin Wells as sales and marketing director of Chambers Bay, the soon-to-open, links-style golf course, located in University Place, Wash., just outside of Tacoma. Wells currently oversees pre-opening sales and marketing efforts and will continue to pilot marketing initiatives and programs upon the course’s debut, scheduled for late June.
Wells, a Washington native, has established a successful track record in corporate sales, partnership marketing programs and public relations with tourism contacts globally. Prior to her assignment at Chambers Bay, Wells served as new business development manager for Air New Zealand.
“Kristin brings a dynamic background and market familiarity to Chambers Bay,” said KemperSports General Manager and Director of Golf Joe Wisocki. “We’re confident in her ability to help create a world-class experience at this Northwest destination.”
Situated just outside of Tacoma and less than an hour south of Seattle, Chambers Bay is destined to be one of the most unique recreational opportunities on the West Coast, offering panoramic views of Puget Sound, neighboring islands and the Olympic Mountains. Designed by world-renowned architecture firm, Robert Trent Jones II, LLC, the 18-hole layout is highlighted by dramatic elevation changes, windswept dunes and native grasses. Pierce County officials are confident the scenic venue will attract golfers and tourists from across the nation as well as local and national tournaments.
