The Shoaff family donated 185 acres of land to the Fort Wayne Parks and Recreation Department in 1955. Initially ninety-five acres became Shoaff Park, while the remaining acreage would eventually be dedicated to the Shoaff Golf Course. The history of the opening is unclear. Some believed that the park opened in1958 while others believed there was a race between the Shoaff and the McMillen families to see who could open their course first in 1963. Despite its uncertain history the course remains virtually unchanged from its original design. In 1996 a full service driving range was built complete with a pitching and chipping area and a sand bunker was added in 2003. Recently a new maintenance building has been installed.
When inclement weather occurs, the course may close for a short period, or for the day, depending upon the severity of the weather. To check on course availability, call the course at 260.427.6745.
