Title
Serangoon Gardens Country Club
Description
In the good old days, the soccer field doubled up as a swimming pool and fishing pond whenever it rained. Members got much more than what their $2 membership was worth whenever it flooded. These memories would remain etched in some of our members’ minds forever.
On 29 April 1955, Mr S C Macey and some residents of Serangoon Gardens established the then Serangoon Gardens Sports Club.
Mr Macey – the developer of Serangoon Gardens Estate at that time – donated the present 22,684 square metres of land stretching from the junction of Hemsley Avenue to Kensington Park Road as a gathering place for residents staying in the area.
