Golf Course Information
Description
The above statements were included in the original article for incorporation filed with the President Judge of the Court of Common Pleas of Lehigh County on November 17, 1910 and granted by the court on December 12, 1910. These two statements are also the first two in our bylaws. After 75 years the original purpose for the club has not changed.
The inception of the club was in the early 1900's when a golf course was built near 17th and Walnut Streets. It was known as the Allentown Golf Club. As interest in golf grew, a group decided to establish a new 9 hole course and clubhouse in the area known as Rittersville. The reason for the location selection between Allentown and Bethlehem was the number of members from Bethlehem and Catasauqua areas. In 1910 the name of Lehigh Country Club came into being. The golf course and clubhouse were completed in 1912, and by 1917 the membership totaled 456. World War I was declared on April 6, 1917, and the club was closed until April 1, 1918, and then opening only for the summer months.
