The Golf Ontario (formerly the Golf Association of Ontario) as it is currently structured came into being in November of 2001, following the amalgamation of the Ontario Golf Association and the Ontario Ladies Golf Association. Prior to the amalgamation, the OGA and the OLGA had represented amateur golfers in Ontario for close to 80 years and had done an excellent job of building and promoting the game.

Located in Armstrong Park on the Northwest shore of beautiful Trout Lake, the club offers introductory week-long youth day camps, summer-long canoe and kayak racing programs, and year-round training for serious athletes competing at national and international level. Evening adult programs are also offered during the summer months.
