EDINA, Minn. (Sept. 15, 2024) - The Minnesota Golf Association (MGA) has announced the hiring of Nicholas Thorngren as its new Digital Media Manager, effective September 16. Thorngren, 42, of Edina, Minn., will be responsible for developing and implementing social media strategies in support of the MGA's brand and mission, enhancing the association's existing digital presence and improving engagement across all its digital media channels.
