HISTORY
The date was April 3, 1921, a Sunday, and the place was the Cape Girardeau Country Club. That was when Fred A. Groves and Charles W. Boutin played the first official round of golf in Cape Girardeau. On that first day of golf in Cape Girardeau, Groves and Boutin played nine holes.
From that day forward, the Cape Girardeau Country Club has been the site for thousands of memorable rounds of golf. Over the years the club has evolved and transitioned into a modern club, featuring 18 challenging holes of golf, pickleball courts, swimming pool, multiple dining options, flexible event space and enjoyable social activities. While the property and clubhouse have changed over time, the club’s “family first” atmosphere has not.
