After a survey of approximately 200 local golfers, conducted in 2021, the most requested improvement was a new clubhouse for Dykeman Park Municipal Golf Course.
Through our own fundraising, plans have been developed to bring that request to life, and we’d like to share our vision of what a new clubhouse would do for our course, and our community.
The new clubhouse will not only bring a fresh and inviting facility to accommodate golfers, but will also be a beautiful place for the public and organizations to benefit from throughout the entire year.

LPRF & the Dykeman Park Golf Course Project
The LPRF held its first golf outing in 2021, to benefit the Dykeman Park Clubhouse.
After the 1st golf outing, enough funds had been raised to create a concept plan for future fundraising.
The 2nd golf outing raised additional funds to make additional improvements to the course.
Currently, a committee has been established to focus on the fundraising required to design and develop a new clubhouse at Dykeman Park Municipal Golf Course, with the goal of a new clubhouse being operational for the course’s 100th anniversary in the spring of 2026.
