Green Valley Country Club - Fairfield, CA Details
Green Valley Country Club is a private, family oriented country club with a Championship golf course committed to providing exceptional food and service, outstanding recreational facilities and entertaining social events in a family friendly atmosphere.In the Spring of 1949, a group of families gathered to explore the possibility of a family club. Among them were the O'Donnel's, Willcocks', Mullen's, Petrich's, Chappel's, Coons', Herbert's, Reimers', Kingsbury's, Paul O'Hara's, Kenney's, Wichel's, and "one or two" other families.These adventuresome families purchased the 500 acre F. Sydney Jones ranch, then the world's largest cherry orchard and on March 6, 1950 the first General Membership meeting was held. The summer months of 1950 found the cherry orchard being transformed into a "family playground" that brought hundreds out every weekend.The first budget included a cost estimate of $110,000 for the golf course! Irwin Reimers took on the task of clearing cherry orchards, leveling land and preparing the property for the residential lots and for the golf course. "It was some months before it became noticed that the original plan for a 9 hole golf course was being abandoned in favor of an 18 hole course." Thank you Mr. Reimers for your bold foresight!Our Club's family roots began on day one. Mrs. Witchel was asked to form a "Women's Division", the basis of today's very active women's groups. Families formed committees to handle everything from saddling the horses to developing the "Little Red Theatre," which now the site of our tennis courts. The pool, the bath house and the modernization of the Mansion began.Today, not much has changed. We've added on to the buildings, renovated here and there; but the family foundation that made this a great Club still exists. Members still jump in to help. Families still come here to enjoy their leisure time. And most importantly, weekends are still filled with good friends in a beautiful mansion enjoying snazzy tunes and a drink or two.
