It's a short, hilly, and challenging layout with push-up greens and small tee boxes. Always in great condition, it's fun to play

My crew had a very interesting find while installing irrigation pipe on this course-a Revolutionary War cannonball. Apparently the course is built on a former battle zone.

Did the club have to move around 1903?  Maybe, as it seems somebody bought the land according to this Boston Sunday Journal blurb, which was followed by more in the Boston Journal on November 22:
