⛳ Middleton Speaker Series: “Brick and Mortar is Not Dead”
Join us for an engaging conversation with Brian Leach ’88, UND graduate and owner of The Golf Center in Grand Forks.
Founded by Brian’s father in 1992, The Golf Center has grown from a local family business into a nationally recognized leader in custom club fitting—including recognition as one of Golf Digest’s Top 100 Club Fitters in America.
Brian will share the story behind The Golf Center, lessons learned over more than 30 years in business, and how a family-owned, brick-and-mortar business continues to find success in an increasingly online world.
🎤 Come hear Brian’s insights on entrepreneurship, family business and why brick-and-mortar is not dead!
