The concept of constructing a new 9 hole golf course in Clare crystallized in 1966 when 80 interested citizens, spearheaded by Dave and Louis Gaudet, met to investigate the possibility of building a golf course in their region. The first Board of Directors worked extremely hard over the winter and their goal of raising $ 35,000 was met by the spring of 1967.
Both the present site on the old Payzant/Aylward properties in the Falmouth Valley and the original Windsor Golf Club on the Fort Edward site in Windsor are steeped in history.
