The
modest beginnings of the Williamsport Country Club date back to 1909.
Investors accumulated funds totaling $25,000 to purchase the Hepburn
Farm. The 1910 annual meeting was held at the Park Hotel. Soon after,
the club's numerous golf and social activities began to thrive.
Golf’s finest traditions are forever a part of the old clubs
of the Northeast. In 1909 A.W. Tillinghast designed the first nine
holes at Williamsport Country Club. He returned in 1923 to complete
this eighteen-hole classic. With its subtle contours and deceiving
length, Williamsport has been called one of Tillinghast’s
hidden jewels in north central Pennsylvania. Tucked amongst the
Appalachian mountain range, the meticulously manicured course offers
players a timeless golfing experience where the heritage of golf’s
past is visible with every new hole. |
