The Founders Club is a brand new community crafting an
exclusive golf club bound by the ancient traditions of the sport.
Description: The Founders Club traces its roots back to John Hamilton
Gillespie, who in the late 1880s traveled from Scotland to the wild lands of “Sara
Sota” with his clubs in hand and a vision for what this land of natural beauty
could become. Today, The Founders Golf Club is coming to life as a new,
traditional golf club inspired by the ancient story of golf as it was told in Sarasota .
