MOUNT HOREB, Wis. (WMTV) – A century of history is being celebrated at Norsk Golf Club in Mount Horeb as a new fundraising campaign looks to support the course’s future.
The nonprofit Friends of Norsk is aiming to raise $300,000 to preserve and improve the nine-hole public course and its clubhouse. The group has operated Norsk for the past 10 years after the course was sold to the Village of Mount Horeb. In the past decade, the Friends have invested more than $1 million into the course.
Organizers say the course has long served as a cornerstone for the community.
“America just celebrated our 250th; well this course has been here for a hundred.” said Craig Enzenroth, vice president and treasurer of Friends of Norsk. “So it’s a great community asset. It’s great green space right in the heart of the community, and therefore I think that’s why its endured.”
Friends of Norsk board member Paul Wittmann said the course supports programming and events that reach beyond regular play.
“We’ve got an amazing junior program here that’s grown considerably over the years,” Wittmann said. “We host a lot of different events here. The golf team — our Mount Horeb high school golf team — boys and girls compete here.”
The nonprofit says course usage has more than doubled to 19,000 rounds over the past decade, and the youth golf program continues to grow year after year.
Board members say they have raised about $70,000 since the campaign launched. To learn more about the Friends of Norsk or to donate to the cause, visit norskgolfclub.com/100/.
