In looking for a place to lay out a course, a family named Brower was approached and because the parents had recently died, the daughter liked the idea of the farm becoming a golf course and sold the family farm of to the Golf Corporation, Thomas W. Davis, Pres., for $10,000. Another adjoining were bought for $6,000. $17,000 had already been raised by selling shares for $100 a share, so with $1,000 in the bank, they forged ahead. Tom Davis designed the nine-hole course, and with the help of many volunteers, many of whom belonged to the Glenwood Lions Club, the work began. Two dams were built to supply the water for the greens, the fairways were seeded (1963), and the members of the soon-to-be Ladies League for the course hand planted trees. Opening day was May 30, 1964. Dues the first year were $35.00, and if you belonged within a five-mile (8 km) radius of Glenwood, you could not play without being a member. The old farmhouse was used as a clubhouse. Later a new clubhouse was built at a cost of $185,000.
