This confirms that you are correct. I received this email today.Just didn’t think it could be Linrick, it’s been run by Richland county forever, i wouldn’t think it could ever have had any financial trouble!
Hello Mr. Ward!
Sorry for the delay. LinRick Golf Course has never been privately owned. It was founded by Richland County Recreation commissioners Thomas S. Linton (chairman) and J.W. Derrick in 1972. The name LinRick is derived from a combination of Linton and Derrick. It has always been owned by Richland County Recreation Commission. I hope this helps!
