History for the Preservationist: Tippecanoe Country Club opened in 1921 when a small group purchased a nine-hole golf course in Boardman Township. Starting as the “Poland Country Club,” members became dissatisfied with a course of only nine holes. On April 26, 1927, members pooled together and purchased more than 185 acres of land to build the eighteen-hole course of today. The course was then designed by arguably the most renowned course architect of all time, Donald Ross. Once the eighteen-hole course was completed, officers were elected and a golf pro was hired. They then formed a corporation, naming it “The Tippecanoe Country Club.”
