Pine Hills Golf
Course History |
|
| |
Milbank Country Club was founded in 1929 with
sand greens. It was a nine-hole course owned by stockholders.
During 1947-49, three grass greens each year were built. Jack
Davenport expanded a slough to an 80 acre lake that was used for
irrigation. During a drought in 1976, Bob Schreiner and member
volunteers put in a fairway irrigation system.
|
In February 1995, the shareholders sold the existing nine-hole golf course
and 75 acres to Randy and Robin Patnoe. An additional nine holes,
designed by Jack Davenport and developed by Marty Johnson (
Sioux City
,
IA
), were built. The golf course was then renamed
Pine Hills
Golf Course, open to the public.
