When Apawamis was incorporated in 1891, it became the first men’s social club to be chartered by New TYork State. Laid out over typically rugged and hilly Westchester terrain, the Apawamis course is Founded: extremely tight, demanding accuracy off the tee as 1890 a first prerequisite for scoring well. But the real Course Opened: 1899 challenges at Apawamis are the small greens which Architects: are as fast and slick as those at Augusta National. Willie Dunn In many ways Apawamis is similar to Maturin Ballou Merion, a short course that requires every shot in Championship Tees: the bag. Ben Hogan once called Apawamis “the Par: 72 Yardage: 6,471 toughest short golf course I have ever played.” Course Rating: 72.1 Slope: 131 The most memorable hole is the fourth, called “Eleanor’s Teeth” (for former first lady Eleanor Roosevelt) for the 12 bunkers that protect the elevated green. The hole features a semi-blind drive to a slanting fairway, and a brook crossing in front of the two-tiered green. Apawamis has hosted a number of national and regional golf championships over the years, including the 1978 Curtis Cup and the 1911 U.S. Amateur, as well as being the host course for the United States Seniors annual championship. The club holds the record for the most times hosting an MGA Championship, with the total being nineteen.

  • May 7, 2020 to the MEMBERS of the UNITED STATES CONGRESS
    May 7, 2020 TO THE MEMBERS OF THE UNITED STATES CONGRESS: On behalf of the undersigned chambers of commerce, civic groups, trade associations, and other non-profits, we urge you to extend eligibility for the Paycheck Protection Program to all nonprofit organizations when Congress considers the next COVID-19 emergency assistance legislation. Thousands of nonprofit organizations — including ours — were left out of the Phase 3 CARES Act and are being hard hit by the coronavirus pandemic. Our groups contribute to the vitality and spirit of our communities. We employ thousands of people and provide important workforce development and educational tools, economic support, and civic and cultural events. Our organizations have suffered major financial losses due to the pandemic of the type the Paycheck Protection Program was intended to alleviate. Some non-profits have already permanently closed their doors. Many more will be forced to do so without relief from Congress. The CARES Act made certain nonprofit organizations eligible for the Paycheck Protection Program. We urge Congress to extend this assistance to local chambers of commerce, civic groups, trade associations, and other non-profits so that organizations like ours can continue to provide important, community-minded services. Sincerely, National American Institute of CPAs American International Automobile Dealers Agricultural Retailers Association Association Air-Conditioning, Heating and Refrigeration Institute American Iron and Steel Institute American Apparel & Footwear Association

  • “I Play Hunches,” by Gene Sarazen
    14 THE SRTURDAY EVENING POST .Rug ust JI, 19J,s - absontly to myself: "How about a rudder on the back of my niblick ?" The result was a special niblick with a rear one-quarter of an inch lower than-the frout edge of the blade. In other words, it is designed with a rudder like an airpl ane, and its effect was amazing. I don't fear the traps now. I even seek them, as I did on two holes of the 1D32 world's championship match with Francis Ouimet. I mean that I played for the traps while Ouimet played for the pin, and I won both holes, as I fully expected to. I knew, you see, that the pin s were not advantageously placed; that Ouimet's pitch shots wouldn't hold the green, but would roll over into the rough. And I knew tha,t I could chip nearer to the cup from the sand than he or anybody else could from the grass. Nobody knows it, but when I threw away .Ils T old to Davis J.

That the present U. 8S. champion, Mr. Charles Evans, Jr., will have to put up a wonderful game to retain his title does not admit of a doubt. If he can ‘“nutt’’ this week, he maydo it. If his putter is not working well, there are half a dozen contenders who will give him a bad time ofit. Take for instance Francis Ouimet, the vanquisher of Vardon and Ray, and an ex-open and amateur champion.

Americans infatuated with golf established country and golf clubs, built ornate club- houses, laid out inland park courses, experimented with new types of equip- ment, and even modified time-honored rules. Scottish and English officials resented the upstart Americans who dared to challenge the traditions and authority of the sportsmen of St. Andrews and other hallowed centers of British golf, but in the long run the British had little power to stop or even slow down the inexorable tide of change.

    THE APAWAMIS CLUB Two Club Road Rye, New York 10580 (914) 967-2100 www.apawamis.org About The Apawamis Club: Apawamis’ story demonstrates the richness of the club’s enduring legacy and the origin from which the founding of the Club was inspired dating back to the year 1890. The origins of squash at Apawamis are historically significant as it can be said that Apawamis played a prominent role in the development of the game, then known as “squash tennis.” It was in 1904 that the first squash house at Apawamis, comprising of two courts was built. It is believed that this was only the third such facility in the country built on club grounds after Tuxedo and the New York Racquet Club. Several years later, with the popularity of this new sport on firm footing, the courts were moved to the area of our current location. Although there have been many renovations and conversions of court size, Apawamis has kept pace with the times and proudly boasts one of the finest squash programs in the country. The Club’s support of the renowned athletic programs and the ongoing upgrades and renovations to the clubhouse and athletic facilities demonstrates the Apawamis membership’s appreciation of the club, for its history and traditions. • 700 plus family members • 5 squash singles courts and 2 squash doubles courts • 7 tennis courts and 3 paddle courts • 18 hole golf course • State-of-the-art athletic fitness center • Outdoor pool • 4 dining rooms, 2 bar lounges Position Summary: Job Title - Director of Junior Squash He or she will be the second highest ranking professional in the squash department at the Apawamis Club and the “heir apparent” to the Director of Apawamis Squash, Peter Briggs.
