Elks-Wyandots Long Goodbye- The Saga of a Lost Donald Ross Classic. The Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks, Columbus Lodge No, 37 (BPOE or the Elks) acquired 265 acres of property bordering on Morse Road and Indianola Avenue in the Clintonville area of Columbus in 1921. It was opened for play in 1923. The Elks Country Club owned and operated the facilities until 1931 when the course name changed to Wyandot Country Club. The course closed for good in 1952. The facilities of the State of Ohio School for the Deaf now occupy the area where the Elks- Wyandot clubhouses once stood. The School for the Deaf is accessible from Morse Road over roughly the same driveway that was used to access the clubhouses many years ago. The State of Ohios School for the Blind occupies the northwest portion of the property across a deep and forested ravine that effectively separates its campus from that of its sister school . The School for the Blind is accessible from High Street. This info came from the 2 links below. There is much much more interesting info and great pictures provided on the links.
