2023 IGA Yearbook

122 Golf House Iowa There has never been a permanent home for the Iowa Golf Hall of Fame. The IGA relies on its member clubs to provide space for seminars, meetings, and other routine business that benefits the game. Since the late 1990’s, the IGA has moved its office three times. Organizations such as the Iowa Golf Course Superintendents Association and First Tee - Central Iowa have either moved multiple times or do not currently have a central office. Imagine a physical location centrally located in the state that would honor those that came before us in golf, serve those playing the game today, and develop those that will enjoy this game long after us, as well as serve as a hub from which multiple groups with compatible missions could do what they do more effectively and more efficiently. With that in mind, we have the vision to create “Golf House Iowa”. The creation of Golf House Iowa will provide a permanent home to preserve, promote, and protect the game of golf in our great state. We plan to include the Iowa Golf Hall of Fame and Museum, a space for educating golfers, areas to promote and teach the game, and office space for the Iowa Golf Association, IGA Foundation, and other related golf organizations.
