Youngstown Country Club company history timeline

1898

In 1898, some 50 young ladies and gentlemen of Youngstown organized the Mahoning Golf Club and, in a year, completed a nine-hole course and a small frame Clubhouse on the Bissell farm, located well beyond the city outskirts, but still a comfortable walk from the end of the Elm Street trolley line.

1905

A growing city forced the Club to move in 1905 to an area in the country that can be placed along Crandall Park and Andrews Hollow, running from Ohio Avenue almost to Belmont.

1907

In 1907 the Club hosted the Ohio State Golf Tournament.

1912

A brilliant evening reception on June 28, 1912 marked the formal opening.

1915

The Club’s first Ladies Day was observed on July 19, 1915, perhaps six tables of bridge and two foursomes on the course for an hour or so.

1918

Two-ball mixed foursomes were not introduced until the summer of 1918 when the young men of the city began returning from the First World War.

1925

In 1925 the 25th Open Championship of the Western Golf Association was played here.

1926

John Morley, founded the Golf Course Superintendent Association of America in 1926.

1928

A fire at the start of the 1928 season destroyed most of the Club building, miraculously sparing the men’s locker room.

1974

In 1974 four tennis courts were lighted for evening play.

1980

In the 1980’s two ambitious programs were undertaken to upgrade the golf course and refurbish portions of the Clubhouse.

1993

In 1993, a mixed grill room appropriately named The Terrace Room was added, providing a stunning view of the 9th hole, 1st, 10th and 18th fairways as well as the 1st and 10th tees.

2009

In 2009, Morley received the Old Tom Morris Award and joined names like Arnie Palmer, Jack Nicklaus and Robert Trent Jones as previous winners.
