Vandergrift Golf Course is a par-35 public course in Vandergrift, PA.
Vandergrift Golf Course serves the historic planned community of Vandergrift in Westmoreland County, one of the most remarkable industrial towns in Pennsylvania. George McMurtry and Frederick Law Olmsted Jr. designed Vandergrift in 1895 as a model worker community for Apollo Iron and Steel — curvilinear streets, parks, and homes built for the dignity of steelworkers. The course fits that civic vision: golf as community amenity rather than elite preserve. Vandergrift and the surrounding Kiskiminetas River valley have navigated post-steel realities with varying success, but the golf course endures as part of the social fabric Olmsted's plan intended. Westmoreland County is also Arnold Palmer country — Latrobe sits just miles to the southeast.
