Kearney Country Club

About Kearney Country Club:

The Kearney Country Club owns one of the oldest continually played golf courses in Nebraska. The club was founded on leased grounds west of Lake Kearney in the Summer of 1915 by local businessmen, young professionals, and the Elks fraternal order. Few, if any, of the original members had ever played golf and didn’t necessarily plan for golf to be the primary club activity. The original members were influenced by the sport and leisure movement of the early 1900s and their intention was to create an outdoor recreation area suitable for swimming, boating, fishing, picnicking, tennis, golf, horseback riding, and a host of other activities. In 1915, building a golf links might have been the easiest and cheapest use of the land. The original members, therefore, scratched out a rudimentary seven-hole links from the natural environment on the rolling hills and valleys of the country club grounds. The course sported native buffalo grass fairways, natural bunkers and hazards, and hard-packed dirt greens.
