Produktbeschreibung
Since 1881, the Progress Club, and then its successor, Oakwood Country Club, have been integral parts of the Kansas City community, providing a home for social, recreational, and business functions as well as marriages and other monumental occasions. This book tells of that rich history using a storehouse of archival photographs and recollections from past members. Through most of its history, Oakwood was widely considered to be a Jewish club and, as such, it is the second longest continuously running organization in the Kansas City Jewish community behind only Congregation B'nai Jehudah. Today, the club welcomes a diversity of members and celebrates the extensive improvements brought to the facility by a group of members led by Ken Block.

Autorenporträt
Ward Katz is a past president of Oakwood Country Club and served on the club's board from 1996 through 2002. In or around 2018, when it became apparent that the future of the club was in question, Katz felt responsible to update the club's history as chronicled by the club's prior historian, Ken Krakauer. He started his effort by asking each of the presidents who had succeeded him (including the executive committee which served in lieu of a president in 2016-2017) to provide an overview of significant activity during his or her term.
