Back then I talked with people who were in their 80's and they knew nothing. Here we see the first course was built in '23 (same year chips were made) and a tournament in '25. There wasn't any golf course there except for the one mentioned without a known name. Strange that there was a course, a tournament, and yet no clubhouse? Maybe a nearby private home served as one; I don't know. But, without any mention or records if a club until '29, I would put my money on the chips being ordered for what either was known or about to be known as Naples Little Club; the only greens in town...
