Hawk
Creek Country Club is an absolute grass roots success that
shows the power of community teamwork and involvement. Over 15 years
ago, the good people of Raymond forged a vision for a healthier, safer,
more enjoyable community in which to raise their kids and welcome their
friends. This golf course is a shining example of what
a dedicated group of people can accomplish when working together.
Led
by the drive and desire of the original board members: Ken Damhof, Marilyn
Goeman, Kevin Hauser, Duane Hultgren, Wayne Kluver, Larry Macht, Alan
Teeple, Ron Ulferts, and Harry Zimmer; Hawk Creek Country Club has spread
its wings from a fledgling course to a gathering place for friends and
a popular summer destination in Kandiyohi County.
Opened
in the summer of 1997, Hawk Creek Country Club has
already welcomed over 100,000 rounds from local residents and area golfers.
Make no mistake, though, core members
have always been the difference here. We've shown that a small town
course can survive - and thrive - if it has a big enough
heart and strong local support.
The
existing board has worked hard to keep our costs low while maintaining
and improving the quality of our course. In the last two years,
we have added new tee boxes on hole #6, hole
#8, hole #1, and hole
#3. We've planted hundreds of trees, flowers, and bushes to beautify
the course and add challenge, and we remodeled the clubhouse
in 2006. But despite rising inflation and rate hikes seen at other courses,
our rates have increased less than 2 percent per year
since 1997 - plain and simple, other courses would be hard pressed to
match our fiscal contol and commitment to our members.
