The Club House
Ken-Wo became an 18 hole course in 1964. The original pro shop was located where the new facility is located and the clubhouse was located approximately 150 feet south of this facility, where today's flag poles are situated. In 1978 the original pro shop was demolished and a new pro shop was built on that site. Over the years such minor improvements as a deck, locker room and shower facilities were made to the original clubhouse, however, this building was very old and frail and everyone realized that a replacement would soon be needed.
In 1987 a long range plan was approved by the shareholders who determined that over the next several years improvements would be made to the course in order improve Ken-Wo and help maintain our commitment to excellence. This course development follows a master plan established by golf architect William Robinson. During the 2002 off-season the Board of Directors decided that the time had come to re-visit and update our Long Range Plan. The golf project management firm of MacIntyre Dumeah MacMillan was contracted to complete this project. A membership survey was undertaken and completed with the final recommendations received during the 2003 off-season.
In 1990 the shareholders decided on the new clubhouse and pro shop facility which they felt would meet their needs presently and in the future. Construction started in October 1990 and the new building was opened in May of 1991. This project included moving the pro shop building to the back of our property to become our maintenance building.
With a blended focus on today's needs and Ken-Wo's future, club management is always looking for ways to better the club and improve the overall golfing experience. Member input is both encouraged and appreciated. It is this feedback that will ensure constant work towards making Ken-Wo a better place to be!
