Michele Reilly Departs Willoughby Golf Club After Decades of Service

May 15, 2025

After more than two decades of dedicated leadership, Michele Reilly, CCM, PCAM, has officially stepped down as general manager of Willoughby Golf Club. Her 16-year tenure as GM—and seven additional years in various leadership roles—shaped the club’s culture, redefined its facilities, and strengthened its long-term strategic footing.

Under Michele’s direction, Willoughby Golf Club underwent a remarkable evolution. She championed a full golf course renovation, multiple clubhouse upgrades, the construction of a modern fitness center, and the introduction of the Cabana Bar & Grill. In true Michele fashion, her final contribution was a nod to the club’s vibrant racquets community—she launched the addition of a new pickleball court just before her departure.

Michele’s legacy is defined by her steady vision, her ability to execute complex capital projects, and her commitment to cultivating a collaborative, forward-thinking club environment. Her presence will be missed, but her influence will continue to shape Willoughby for years to come.
