The Country Club Brookline Vintage Curling Club Pin
It is named The Country Club and rightfully so. Established in 1882, The Country Club in Brookline, Massachusetts is the oldest country club in the United States. Originally the club's main focuses were horseback-riding and other non-golf outdoor activities. The Country Club finally built their golf course over ten years later and it proved to be a good decision. Starting with a Francis Ouimet US Open victory in 1913, the club has hosted three US Opens and is scheduled to host another one in 2022. In addition to those tournaments played at The Country Club there have been many US Amateur bouts and even the 1999 Ryder Cup, in which the Americans remember fondly. This colorful pin showcases yet another sport that they participate in at the club, curling. The pin is approximately 1 1/4" diameter and has The Country Club Brookline squirrel on it.
