Formerly known as Philadelphia Electric CC, McCall celebrates 100 years. Originally built as an employee benefit, golf started as a 9 hole Ross design. Later, Flynn expanded the course. Jeff Silverman writes in the GAP magazine:

It's short but difficult to score.

It's not that difficult to score at McCall. I break 80 there every time.

Philly is a great area for golf. McCall is great fun and yet I never even think of it.

Golf history can be quite interesting if you just let your favorite legends go and allow the truth to take you where it will.

It is fun to look back about 5 years ago when I started this quest to photodocument most courses in the area. One of the first I did was McCall. And it shows in many ways as my picture taking and post-processing was uneven, to say the very least. With that said, here is McCall from a morning round back in 2007:
