Tri-Way Golf Club
12939 4A Road, Plymouth; 574-936-9517; www.triwaygolf.com
Tri-Way Golf Club is proud to announce that it celebrates 40 years of operation in 2006. In the early 1960's, Don Kinney, Sr. and wife Dorothy had a dream. They saw a golf course where the family farm had been since 1889. With their friend and neighbor, Aloysius (Wish) Humphrey, and with the help of Wish, Don, Dorothy, Don, Jr., Dana, David, Dee Anna, and yes, even Grandma Rachel and great-uncle Delbert Kinney, they built their dream. In 1966, their dream became a reality; the Tri-Way Golf Club, a 9-hole, par 35 golf-course. Few courses were in operation in Marshall County then. For $1.25 you could walk 9 holes. There were no golf cars; they came later. In the early 70's, the second 9 holes across 4A Road were constructed, and in 1972, Tri-Way Golf Club became a regulation 18-hole, par 71 course. In 1998, Don Sr., passed away. All of the Kinney businesses were too much for 75 year old Dorothy, so she asked Don, Jr. and his wife, Jan if they would move back to Plymouth and run the golf course. Without hesitation, they said yes so the business could remain in the family. In their eighth year of ownership, Don and Jan have been making improvements to the course every year, including adding a driving range and expanding the clubhouse. To celebrate 40 years of operation, Tri-Way will sponsor a number of events in the month of July, including retro rates - 1966 green fees; best 1960's golf outfit contest; drawings and prizes for customers.
