Located approximately 17 miles north of downtown Chicago just west of Wilmette, the Village of Golf is home to approximately 170 families and one commercial enterprise - the Western Golf Association and its Evans Scholars Foundation. The village has its own U.S. Post Office, police force and Metra train station. Schools, parks and the fire department are shared with neighboring Glenview.
The Golf Civic Association is a seven-member community organization whose responsibility it is to plan social events for the residents of the village and help celebrate holidays, as well as welcome new residents and keep the village looking beautiful. As one of the smallest communities in Cook County, the Village of Golf has a long tradition of community involvement and organization.
Winnetka District 36 schools have a long tradition of progressive education and parental and community involvement. Ten years before the Village was incorporated in 1869, families in the town made private donations to finance the first public school. Today, children in District 36 attend one of three elementary schools (Crow Island, Greeley, and Hubbard Woods); a fifth/sixth grade center (The Skokie School); and a seventh/eighth grade middle school (Carleton Washburne School).
Award-winning New Trier Township High School delivers an academic program comprehensive in scope and providing the rigor of critical thought. Each department creates dynamic, relevant and challenging curricular offerings for students.
