Historical Timeline

September 30, 1899	102 original Charter Members filed the Articles of Incorporation. First President, E.A.Cudahy.
1899	A Two-story clubhouse is built in an area now known as the “Country Club Area” of Omaha. It provided locker rooms, social and dining halls, a men’s grill, and several upstairs bedrooms which House Rules prescribed might be engaged for one-week periods by the Members.
1925	Increasing pressure from the encroachment of a growing city leads to a new site for the club.
1927	A new clubhouse, sprawled elegantly atop a hill far from any signs of city life, was formally opened. The clubhouse remains at the same location today.
1952	World-renowned golf course architect, Perry Maxwell is commissioned to undertake an extensive renovation of the golf course.  Changes made by Maxwell include shortening #5, lengthening #6 and #10, relocating the green on #12 and completely rebuilding many of the green complexes on the golf course.  As a result, OCC bears the unmistakable stamp of Maxwell's hand and its undulating greens, with their "Maxwell rolls" are reminiscent of some of Maxwell's other works which include Southern Hills in Tulsa, Prairie Dunes in Hutchinson, KS. and Colonial in Forth Worth.
1960	A new golf shop and ladies’ locker room is added onto the north end of the clubhouse.
1998	An extensive clubhouse renovation is undertaken and the addition of Belfry I and II add more dining areas and private function space. The overall appearance of the interior is updated, but maintains its elegant heritage.
1999	The club celebrates its Centennial year
2005	Members undertake a multi-million dollar renovation of the golf course. In order to respect much of Maxwell's work, the  renovation was undertaken by Keith Foster, the same golf course architect who oversaw major renovations at Southern Hills and Colonial.
