Club History
Minto Golf Club was founded in 1928 and the course was constructed over a period of 4 years. It was designed as a 9 hole course and was first played in 1933. The clubhouse at the time stood on the ground adjacent to the 15th green at the lower end of the present 18 hole course. In 1973 more land was acquired and 10 new holes brought in to play in 1977. A short par 3 was dropped from the original 9 holes.

To see the ...

Later in the month we hope to publish some maps...
