Championship Golf
In 1919 on a scenic piece of property in Orwigsburg, PA, the original 9-holes of the golf course were designed by golf course architect Willie Park Jr. In 1921, the course and clubhouse officially opened and became known as the Schuylkill Country Club.
In the mid-1940s, additional property was purchased on each side of the existing 9-holes and the course was redesigned to 18-holes by world-renowned golf course architect, Donald Ross. His challenging and enjoyable layout is known for its fabulously maintained playing conditions in a peaceful, quiet atmosphere.
Schuylkill Country Club is recognized as one of the premier courses in the Mid-Atlantic region. The course is member friendly and home course knowledge proves to play a major role in most tournaments. The greens are designed in traditional Donald Ross style and continue to make the course different every time it is played. A variety of golf events and clinics are available to all skill levels for men, women, and juniors.
In 2023, Schuylkill Country Club played host to the filming of the Philadelphia Sports show called the Traveling Golfer. The episode was titled 'Yuengling, America's Oldest Brewery' and featured long-time SCC member Dick Yuengling playing a few holes at SCC and a tour of the Yuengling Brewery.
