TRIBUTARY CHAMPIONSHIP - CHAMPION QUINCY COUNTRY CLUB As early as 1897 there was an interest in golf in Quincy. During 1898 the Rev. Samuel H. Dana, pastor of the First Union Congregational Church from 1883-1903, was traveling in the East and observed people in New York playing the game for the first time in the United States. Dr. Dana brought the game home to Quincy with a few clubs and golf balls. He and Morton Stewart laid out a course in a cow pasture just east of Lawndale, which is the neighborhood encompassing East and West Avenues. Tin cans were sunk into the ground to be used for holes. Others involved were Boyd Castle, Douglas Carter, Edward Wells, Alfred Botsford, T.E. Musselman and V.G. Musselman. Later in 1898 Dr. Dana interested a large number of Quincy men in golf. They incorporated the Quincy Country Club on October 26, 1898, for the purpose of the social enjoyment of its members and for the promotion of golf and other sports. They selected the following men as directors: Charles H. Williamson, President; Joseph W. Emery, Vice President; Fred H. Wilms, Jr., Secretary; Edward J. Parker, Treasurer; Charles H. Bull, J.W. Cassidy, John A. Stillwell, W.P. Upham, and S.B. Montgomery. Others active in the organization were Frank Whitney, E.M. Botsford, William Stahl and Charles Nichols. The Club began operation on a leased tract of land known as the “Forty Acres”, which was located south of the present Clubhouse and east of 24th Street between Washington and Madison streets, primarily in the neighborhood developed later as Country Club Drive. The land, sometimes also referred to as the Emery-Ayers property, was leased from the Walter F. Emery family for an initial term of 30 years. The Forty Acres was augmented with 23 acres of land known as the Stark property, which was located to the east across Emery Creek to about the present site of the sixth tee. The first Clubhouse was opened on September 27, 1899, at what is now 24th and Washington streets and boasted locker rooms, a dance hall, kitchen and porches. The Club had a nine-hole golf course, bowling alleys and ping pong, and meals were served upon notifying the steward. Tennis courts were added later. The original golf course was laid out by H.J. Tweedie in May 1899 and ran 2,844 yards with bogey at 47. (Bogey was a more common goal of even experienced players in the early days of golf when playing conditions were much harsher than those today.) Later it was changed to 3,089 yards with bogey at 42. https://www.quincycountryclub.com/ www.MarkALongstreet.com
