Area golf enthusiasm during the 1920s
sparked a
number of miniature courses such as this green
on the front lawn of Saugatuck's Butler Hotel. |
0CT. 2, 2009 -- A nostalgic look at golf courses
that have drawn visitors from near and far to the Saugatuck-Douglas
area, including some links that live on only in memory, will
highlight the Saugatuck-Douglas Historical Society meeting
Wednesday, October 14, at 7:00 p.m. in the Old School House
Discovery Center, 130 Center Street, Douglas. Admission is free and
public attendance is invited.
The presentation, by retired local newspaper
editor and dauntless duffer Art Lane, will reveal why our area is
blessed with a bounty of courses, recalling how West Shore,
Clearbrook and Ravines came to be.
