My husband said that maybe you could contact Woodmoor Country Club and leave a message that you are doing research on the history of the club, and maybe some of their older members might be willing to be interviewed.

: Maryland National Capital Park and Planning
: Commission (MNCPPC) owns the land where
: Prince George's Country Club was located. I
: understand, although I am not sure, that
: they traded some land with Woodmoor Country
: Club. My husband used to work at Woodmoor
: and he saw some paperwork that read, Prince
: George's Country Club, trading as Woodmoor
: Country Club. That was about 20 years ago.
: When he was a boy living in Kentland, the
: kids used to go to the pool at the PG
: Country Club. The pool is now filled in and
: is the basketball court. Ms. Susan Pearl,
: of this website, is the historian for the
: MNCPPC, and she may have some photos of the
: grand old days, and probably much more
: information.

: While working at a golf course in PG county,
: I
: came across some old photos of a
: "Prince George's Country Club" in
: Landover, MD. The photos were dated in the
: 1950's and showed an elegant golf club.
:
: I conducted some of my own research and
: found that a private golf course was located
: in Landover (The clubhouse still stands as a
: ballroom) and a pro tournamnet was actually
: held there. I found a photo from the
: Washington Post that had descriptions of a
: "pro-am" type tournamnet and the
: likes of Sam Snead even played there.
:
: Can anyone shed any other light on the club
: or have/know where there are more photos?
:
: Thanks,
