Town and Country Club
Miles City, Montana
Official Opening – 1957
Enjoy Yourself In Miles City!
The stockholders of the Town and Country Club are proud to announce the official opening of the golf course Saturday, June 29, at 1 p.m. We feel it is a great accomplishment in making Miles City a better community in which to live.
The golf course would not be possible if it were not for the generous financial assistance and huge amount of volunteer labor given by many business firms and individuals in the community.
The facilities at the Town and Country Club represent what can be accomplished by the wonderful support we have received. There are over 200 stockholders in the corporation and nearly 100 playing memberships purchased for this season. The board of directors have approved of limiting the playing membership to 200 so anyone interested in purchasing a membership for this summer should do so immediately. Non-members will be allowed to play by paying a green fee, however, members will have priority over non-members if the course is crowded.
As the club grows, the facilities will be expanded to provide for more recreation for more people.
