Long before Sam Snead teed up the first golf ball at Mount Vernon Country Club, George Washington hunted foxes on its future fairways. The land on which the course sits has a long history – land given by an uncrowned king to guarantee the support of his closest friends; land given as a reward for services rendered; land fairly divided by close friends; land both inherited and purchased by Washington family members – one of them, the country’s first president.
