Valley Golf Club
Huntingdon Valley, Pennsylvania
-
Huntingdon Valley was a unique project and
probably the only one of its kind in the world. This project would make for an
interesting feature article in any golf publication.
-
Nine hole course layout that had been unused and shut down for 60 years. The nine
hole Flynt Classic Golf Course which closed in 1928 had been overgrown with trees and
brush for more than half a century.
-
Earthforce had to locate the areas where the old
bunker, tees, and greens had been.
-
This was done by going over the Architect Ron
Prichard's drawings, created from original Flynt drawings and aerial photographs of the
original course when it was farmland.
-
Using all of our experience and resources, the
Earthforce duplicated the old course and brought it back to its original layout.
