Salina Municipal Golf Cource

Salina Municipal Course Details

"The Muni," as it is called by many, is located in Salina, Kansas – a city uniquely situated at the junction of I-135 and I-70. It features 6500 yards of rolling blue grass fairways in as fine of condition as any in the region. The large bent grass greens are normally quick and smooth and can be very deceiving with a prevailing southerly breeze. Four tee boxes on each hole give players of any ability a chance to test their skills.

Salina Country Club

How the club was founded is told by Ruby Phillips Bramwell in the following excerpt from a chapter in her forthcoming book, "The Story of Salina". The September 23rd, 1922 issue of Collier's Weekly Magaine carried an article "How Golf Came to Salina". It was illustrated with a picture of the clubhouse which was almost the exact replica of the one in use in 1967. One balmy spring day the Baptist minister was chatting with D. W. Cowden, who was complaining of not feeling well, and he suddenly exclaimed "You need golf. Ever play it ?" "No, I haven't," responded Mr. Cowden. "Have you?" "Lots," said the minister. "Say, you come with me this afternoon. We'll go out in the country to some nice smooth pasture and try a few shots. I have a set of clubs." They went ... The next day Mr. Cowden sent for clubs and the two men went to Oakdale Park, laying out three holes with tomato cans sunk in the ground for cups. Senator J. L. Bristow and Bishop Griswold heard about it and went over to the park when Mr. Cowden and the minister were knocking the ball about over the rough ground. Something about it got them. When they returned to town they hailed R. P. Cravens, the first man they saw, and told him about the game, ending with "Let's lay out a golf course somewhere in Salina."

The Club is owned by the membership which is now about 680 members. Facilites of the Club include:

The Salina Country Club is a "family center" for our members. We strive to have activities that involve everyone in the family; from the oldest to the youngest.
