Despite all the honors and accolades, Page has never wavered from his grand plan for the Kent State golf program. In August of 2005, Page, along with numerous contributors to the Kent State golf programs, broke ground on the new Kent State Golf Training & Learning Center. Just a little over two years later, the sparkling $2.2 million facility was formally dedicated. A long-time vision of Pages for the golf programs, the state-of-the-art practice facility will ensure Kent State Golfs continued success at the highest national level. In November of 2007, the KSU Board of Trustees formally approved the name of the building as the Ferrara & Page Golf Training & Learning Center in honor of the family of Dr. Emilio Ferrara, who was responsible for the lead gift, and Page. Page is married to Dr. Paula Treckel, and resides in Kent.
