Hawthorne, California · County of Los Angeles Historic Landmark No. 4
History
Chester Washington Golf Course was the first golf course in the county to be integrated. In 1955, events at the site led to the integration of all county-owned golf courses and the addition of a nondiscrimination clause to county facility contracts with concessionaires. It was designated a historic landmark on April 7, 2020 by the Board of Supervisors and the Historical Landmarks and Records Commission.
