Tekoa Country Club - A Brief History
Tekoa was originally built and opened around 1890. but back then it was only a four-hole course it was one of the first in Western Massachusetts. A Grand Clubhouse was added in 1911.
Donald Ross redesigned the course and made it nine holes in 1923. Five of those holes still remain intact today. The original Ross holes are 2, 3, 4, 14, and 15. The other four holes are still visible on the south side of Route 20, which abuts up to Western Avenue and Stanley Park.
Architect Geoffrey Cornish redesigned Tekoa in 1961; he left 5 of Ross’s original holes and added 13 of his own.
