History of the Wymore Country Club
The Wymore Country Club is a 9-hole semi- public golf course. It was organized and built in 1960. The members began play in 1961. The original shares of stock were sold for $100 per share, with individuals able to buy a share of stock and businesses being able to buy up to 3 shares of stock. There were originally 85 members in 1960. From 1961 through 1967 the course had sand greens. In 1962, a barn was transformed into a clubhouse. In 1964, a high school team was formed and began play on the course. In 1992, a deck was added to the west side of the clubhouse.In 1998, a bar was opened in the clubhouse. A pergola was added to the deck in 2007 and in 2009, the inside of the clubhouse was updated with a new wall covering. The Wymore Country Club has and continues to depend on volunteer help for their success.
