Room history

Representing the Eagles Mere Country Club. Originally Captain Chase (the engineer who designed much of Eagles Mere) laid out a six-hole golf course along both sides of Pennsylvania Avenue in the 1800’s. In 1911, a new 18-hole links course was designed by William Flynn (of Merion Golf Club fame). Prior to the Depression the 18 holes were expanded to 36 (and after reduced again to 18). The current clubhouse was once the main building of the Avery family farm and dates to 1878. Besides golf, the club hosted receptions, private parties, and luncheons for the socially prominent. Back in 1934, greens fees were $45 for the season, or $9 per week.
