Associate or Assistant Golf Professional: Huron Oaks Golf Club
Founded in the early 1900s, Huron Oaks Golf Club has a long and proud history on the shores of Lake Huron. Around 1915, Canadian beer baron John Labatt built a summer residence and a 6-hole golf course that, over time and through several ownerships, evolved into a full 18-hole championship facility.
In 1975, the Polysar Employees Recreational Club purchased the property, adding a new clubhouse and recreation center and renaming it Huron Oaks. Shortly afterward, a young Mike Weir—future Masters Champion (2003)—honed his skills here during his junior career.
Following a major redesign in 2004, several new holes and an 80-unit residential community were developed, and in 2009, a new Pro Shop overlooking the 1st tee was completed.
Located in Bright’s Grove, just minutes from the City of Sarnia, Huron Oaks offers an exceptional community lifestyle with nearby housing, beautiful beaches within walking distance, and a strong, active membership base. Our facilities include a full driving range with a members’ practice deck and a teaching deck, as well as a year-round indoor golf center featuring two AboutGolf simulators and nine hitting stations with over 40 feet of ball flight.- Location
