“I would draw birds or
anything else I wanted to
express,” he said. “I was
always the one in school who
was the class artist.”
He’d spend summers
with his older sister, Gina,
who was an art director for
ad agencies along the East
Coast. At 14, he began making
storyboards. When Gina
moved to Los Angeles,
Grimes continued to join her
on summer vacations. At 16,
he earned $2,000 designing a
storyboard for Atlantic
Richfield as part of the company’s
newspaper campaign.
“I was lucky,” he said. “I
never had to accept a dime
from my mom and dad.”

Alabama.
He was 20 when he was
recruited as a designer at
CBS in Los Angeles. The following
year he joined NBC
where, for nine years, he
worked on special projects
for primetime shows, from
print media to on-air advertising.
Grimes was working for
NBC when he was
approached by entrepreneurs
Jerry Montiel and
John Ashworth and asked to
join a business venture.
“They said, ‘we don’t
have a name or a logo. All we
know is that we are going to
make cotton golf shirts. Can
you help us out?’”
Grimes said “yes” and
found himself moving to
North County where he
became vice president and
chief brand officer at what is
now Ashworth Golf. His
iconic “Golfman” design
remains one of the most recognizable
logos in sports
today.
Although he was primarily
a brand strategist,
Grimes also functioned as a
designer, art director and
illustrator.
“During the early years
we found ourselves without a
photographer and this gave
me the opportunity to start
shooting full-time,” he
remembers.
It was at Ashworth that
he met textile designer

Clubhouse
prepares for
partial June
opening
By Christina Macone-Greene
CARLSBAD — Many
are counting the days for the
new Boys and Girls Club site
at the Bressi Ranch to make
its debut.To date,the gymnasium
and teen center are finished,
but the main building
has more work to be done.
But still, the unfinished
part hasn’t hampered the
Boys and Girls Club’s excitement
to offer three sport
camps for the kids, the first
being the Brad Holland
Basketball Camp beginning
in mid-June.
“It’s been a challenge
raising money to build this
new clubhouse, especially in
these challenging economic
times, but we are very
pleased to be able to throw
open our doors, at least partially,
and begin offering
quality yet affordable programming
to even more children,”
said Pat Maldi, director
of marketing and special
events.
Maldi said it’s planning
to open the Bressi Clubhouse
on a limited basis and will be
operating the Brad Holland
Basketball Camp, an All-
Sports Camp, and the
Carlsbad Juniors Volleyball
Camp.
The All-Sports Camp,
Maldi said, will hone in on a
different type of sport each
day. The volleyball clinics,
however, will have a double
focus. One will be for girls
from fourth grade to middle
school, while the other will
be a high school prep camp
through the varsity level.
Bressi Ranch started its
construction in November
2008. Since then, it has
invested $4.5 million into the
project. The Boys and Girls
Club needs an additional
$1.2 million to complete
phase two, the main building
facility.
Once phase two is finished,
Maldi said the new
clubhouse would be a jewel
for the community’s kids.
While the sport camps
at Bressi Ranch will offer its
own uniqueness, Maldi said
she believes the Brad
