Minnesota Golfer - Directory 2011 - 55

I
n the 1920s, the nation's social fabric
was changing, thanks to the introduction
of the automobile, a rising
middle class, a growing national
identity formed around sports heroes and
Hollywood stars and a decade of freewheeling
trade on Wall Street. Golf was entering
a Golden Era, with the exploits of Walter
Hagen, Bobby Jones and Minnesota's
Jimmy Johnston gracing the sports pages.
Thanks to the championship exploits of a
young man named Francis Ouimet, golf
was moving toward mainstream awareness.
Private and public courses were sprouting
up on both coasts and in the Midwest. In
the Twin Cities, more than a dozen courses
opened between 1916 and 1925; statewide,
at least two dozen were operating.
Seth Raynor was in town designing
the Somerset Golf Club when he was approached
to bid on a new course layout
for the University Golf Club. Raynor and
the club's board soon came to an agreeable
fi gure: $1,500. Soon the golf club would
assume a new name, apropos of its being
situated between Minneapolis and St. Paul:
the Midland Hills Country Club.
Since that time, Midland Hills has been
a member of the Minnesota Golf Association
and a staunch supporter of amateur
golf. The State Amateur championship fi rst
visited Midland Hills in 1932, cementing
the club's reputation as a championshipcaliber
course. Midland has hosted numerous
championships, including fi ve more
MGA Amateurs, the last in 2006.
Given that the St. Paul club is celebrating
its 90th anniversary this year (it opened
July 9, 1921), perhaps it's a bit of golf karma
that Midland Hills CC was named the
MGA Member Club of the Year.
The Club of the Year honor is based on
the facility's support of the MGA Associate
Members' program, involvement with the
MGA Junior program, and willingness to
host MGA championships and qualifi ers.
Midland Hills actively supports the MGA's
non-profi t mission through a large and active
members' program, which includes
more than 440 golfers, and has assumed
an active role in adopting new handicap
software and hardware testing.
The club receives a plaque honoring the
achievement and appears on the cover of
this issue of the Minnesota Golfer.
Golfers will fi nd the following golf course
directory information an invaluable tool
in preparing for their next round. The listings
include names, phone numbers, green
and guest fees, directions, policies and, of
course, offi cial USGA Handicap System
Course and Slope Ratings. There are also
entertaining and informative facts about
Midland Hills, its history, its members and
its golf champions.
MGA staff invested many hours to make
this golf course directory a trusted golf resource.
I think you'll fi nd it an indispensable
addition to your golf library. The listings
are subject to change-calling ahead
is always advisable.
