Good Morning, It was a very busy week at The Muni. Our plans for the week changed multiple times due to the early-week hot weather and the arrival of the new plant materials. We needed to complete our daily scheduled tasks, water the trees and sod, and prepare the landscaping areas for the plant materials. […]
Spencer golf dates back to 1904 or earlier, when a handful of young men marked off a course in the area where the gates of the Clay County Fair now stand. The course consisted of tin cans buried in the ground for cups, and was in a pasture area with sheep doing the mowing. Players would use the sheep as a lie (point of reference) after hitting their ball, and would sometimes lose it after the sheep moved on! This “Kil-Care Golf Club” was used more or less for four years. Spencer golfers found plenty of support in 1919 when they proposed a Golf and Country Club as a recreational center, which eventually resulted in the incorporation of Spencer Golf and Country Club in June, 1919. A horse-drawn mower was shipped to Spencer from an eastern factory for lawn care.
