Managers Corner Hello Pecan Grove, My name is Savannah Baquet, and I am your new Membership Director! I am so excited to begin this new journey. I started a little over a month ago, and I have spent that time learning as much as I can about the club and how everything works. The first thing I noticed is how friendly this Membership is! I have been especially excited about this because my goal is to grow the Pecan Grove Family, and that task will be accomplished so much easier since you all are so welcoming! I m sure you all are wondering a little about me. Professionally, I have worked in Private Clubs for the last six years, most recently, Hearthstone Country Club in Northwest Harris County. This is my first time being the Membership Director at a club, but I have been fortunate to have been able to learn from some great mentors. Personally, I am a born and raised Houstonian. I enjoy spending my free time exploring the city and cheering on our Houston Astros! I recently got married, and my husband and I live in Northwest Houston with our dog, Noni. I look forward to meeting all of you in the coming months. My door is always open if you ever have questions about your membership, or if you just want to say hi! Savannah Baquet Director of Membership
