A HOUSE RESOLUTION TO CONGRATULATE HARTSVILLE COUNTRY CLUB ON THE OCCASION OF ITS ONE HUNDREDTH ANNIVERSARY AND TO HONOR ITS SIGNIFICANT CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE HARTSVILLE COMMUNITY AND DARLINGTON COUNTY.
H. 5726 is a simple House Resolution recognizing Hartsville Country Club on the occasion of its 100th anniversary. The resolution congratulates the club for reaching its centennial in 2026 and highlights its long history as a community institution in Hartsville and Darlington County.
The resolution describes the club’s origins in 1926 and notes the development of its golf course from a nine-hole layout designed by Donald Ross to an eighteen-hole course that has since been remodeled by several notable figures in golf course design. It also emphasizes the club’s broader role as a multi-sport and social venue, including tennis, pickleball, swimming, dining, event space, and use by local schools and community groups.
This resolution does not change state law, create new regulatory requirements, or appropriate funds. Its effect is ceremonial only, serving to formally commend Hartsville Country Club and to place the House’s recognition into the legislative record. The practical impact is limited to public acknowledgment of the club’s contributions to recreation, community gatherings, and local civic life in Hartsville and Darlington County.
The sentiment around the bill is unanimously positive and celebratory. The House introduced and adopted the resolution on the same day, and the sponsor list is broad, indicating wide bipartisan and chamber-wide support. The language of the resolution is appreciative and honors the club’s longevity, amenities, and community role.
There is no apparent contention in the available record. No committee debate, opposition, or recorded votes are provided, and the resolution is noncontroversial in nature. The only substantive focus is on celebrating the club’s centennial and its contributions to local recreation, social life, and civic events.
