Lead Assistant Superintendent

Lawrence Country Club is the only full-service, member-owned and operated country club in Lawrence, Kansas. LCC opened with nine holes in 1914. Perry Maxwell, one of the most famous golf course architects in the United States, was instrumental in redesigning LCC in 1935. He was responsible for building an additional nine holes and integrating the original nine holes into the course layout. The course was renovated again in 2005-2006 and much care was taken to maintain as much of Maxwell’s layout as possible. With bent grass tee boxes and fairways and A4 Bentgrass USGA greens, we boast one of the finest golf courses in the area that plays to all skill levels.

The golf course was nominated by Golf Digest as one of the top five renovated country club courses in the Midwest Region.
