Anyone know anything about an old golf course that used to be in Boardman Township called Poland Country Club. I would like to find some old pictures or anything related to the golf course. Thanks!

you would be better off asking your research questions at a public library or the various historical societies.

I am also interested in any information about the Poland Country Club. As I understand, Boardman Fire Dept performed a controlled burn of the clubhouse about 1960 to for development of the land for the Paul C. Bunn school and residential lots.
Is it possible for me to get a digital copy of your postcard?

Default Poland Country Club

In June of 1913, the Poland Country Club was organized to promote closer social acquaintances and the betterment of the physical being of its members through pleasure and recreation. Five miles south of the business center of Youngstown, Oh. on the Poland car line, seventy acres of land were rented from the Realty Security Company. The clubs membership was limited to 300.
The Poland Club Realty was incorporated in October, 1916, and the leased land was purchased. On February 13, 1917, the clubhouse was destroyed by fire. A new building was constructed immediately and opened in March of 1918. Business and professional men, with a membership limited to 200, enjoyed the nine hole golf course, four tennis courts, croquet, and other entertainment.
The Poland Country Club was actually located in Boardman Township, west of Sheridan Road about where Paul C. Bunn elementary school is now located.

The above information is from the Poland Twp. Historical Society that I was able to find online. Also there is a nice picture postcard of the country club on ebay. Not sure if its the original building or the replacement? I think the original.
If I find more info on this subject I will be sure to post it.

Default Poland Country Club

I will be presenting a PowerPoint program on the Poland Country Club on Tuesday, April 15, 2014, 7:30 pm at the Poland Historical Society located at the Little Red Schoolhouse at the corner of Rt. 224 & Struthers Rd.
I have been gathering information for a couple of years now on this forgotten golf course in Poland Twp. and would like to share it in hopes of gathering even more info, pictures and stories.
All are welcome to attend and bring your photos and info to discuss during the presentation.

You can also contact me offline at: LDB67@zoominternet.net if you have questions or want to tell your story about the country club during the presentation.
