Laura Sparks
President of the Board
I've been a proud member of Gobbler's Knob since 2020 and have thoroughly enjoyed serving on the board for the past two years. My husband, Chris, and I have called Helena home since 2010. Along with our two children, Mallory and Cody, we've cherished our summers at Gobbler's Knob, where we've created countless memories and made many wonderful friends.

Jennifer Pemble
Vice President of Finance
My husband, Matt, and I have lived in Helena since 2019. We share our home with a pack of rescue dogs and one brave cat. I enjoy reading, especially on a lounge chair next to the pool in the summer. I love diving into mystery novels and historical fiction. Besides reading, I am an avid bowler and participate in a local league. I also enjoy hiking and exploring nature trails with our dogs. Fun fact: I cannot swim, so if you see me in the deep end of the pool, call the lifeguard!

Bre Rimington
Secretary of the Board
My family and I have been members for two years. I have been married to my husband Jake for five years and we have a four year old son named Rivers. We have lived in Helena for almost four years and have two cats (Edgar & Eleanor) who run our household. We have absolutely loved our time at The Knob, and know there will be plenty more memories and friendships made in the near future!

Steven Davenport
Board Member at Large
My family and I have been members of the club since 2018. My wife's name is Cassie and we have been married 14 years. We have a daughter (Claira Grace - 11) and a son (Dalton - 8). We live in Alabaster and have been there since 2008. We stay pretty busy with our son's sports (travel baseball, basketball, and flag football). My daughter enjoys art and she also plays girls lacrosse. Our main reason that we love our time at Gobbler's Knob is because of the friendships we have made over the years. We look forward to many more summers at the knob and meeting new people along the way.

Colby Nicholson
Board Member at Large
I have lived in Helena for 4 years with my wife Noelle and our two children, Brooks (6) and Jay (4). We joined Gobbler’s Knob in 2024 to have a pool to go to that was close to our house, but we ended up with a lot more than that. We have spent countless afternoons and weekends at Gobbler’s Knob making memories and spending time together as a family and with friends. It is nice to have a place to go that is family friendly and safe for our kids. Other than hanging out at the pool, I enjoy running, spending time at the beach, and Alabama athletics (Roll Tide!). I look forward to serving on the board and making a mark on this great club.

Lizzie Henderson
Board Member at Large
My family and I have been members of Gobblers Knob for 2 years now. My husband and I have 4 children, Charlie 14, Brent 14, Jeffrey 12, and Ava 8. We are always at some type of sporting event for them. My hobbies include reading, crafts and quiet time. I have lived in Helena for 29 years and wouldn’t trade it for the world.

Sara Phillips
Board Member at Large
I have lived in Helena for 8 years with my husband Anthony, our two daughters Callaway (6) and Berkeley (2) and our two pups Samford and Bo. We are members at First Baptist Church in Alabaster. We joined Gobbler’s Knob for a place of Summer fun not realizing just how many special memories we would make. With the welcoming environment, Gobbler’s Knob has been a place to enjoy life with friends and family while relaxing, socializing and celebrating special moments. We’ve enjoyed having a safe community to escape to that places an importance on family values. Besides spending time at the club, I enjoy exercising, embroidery, and creating core memories with my family whether it be through traveling or sporting events (War Eagle!). I am looking forward to serving on the board! Gobble, Gobble!
