About Clearview Golf Course
The Clearview Golf Club was the first golf course in the United States to be built, owned, and operated by an African American. The club was started in 1946, with Bill Powell purchasing the land and working on it in his spare time. It opened to the public and to all races in April 1948. The club, which is located outside of East Canton, Ohio, was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2001. Powell's daughter, Renee Powell, who learned to play on Clearview, went on to become the second black woman to play on the LPGA tour.
