The Langston Golf Course is an 18-hole, par-72 public course that also offers a golf school, golf shop, driving range, putting green, and snack bar. The course is open from dawn until dusk every day except Christmas day. Established in 1939, the Langston Golf Course played a significant in the development and desegregation of public golfing, as well as at other recreational facilities in the greater Washington, D.C., area. Thus the course also aided in the growth of golf as a popular recreational and professional sport among African Americans, and continues to do so today. Green fees: 18 holes: $13.50 weekdays, $17 weekends; nine holes: $9 weekdays, $10.50 weekends. Daily Cart Fees: $11.50 for nine holes, $18 for 18 holes. |
