Draft:East Point Golf Club

  • Comment: I believe this is borderline notable but the press I find looks mainly like PR. Being that it was founded in the 1800s, there should be some older press assuming it is notable. I would suggest finding some historical references through Google Books or Newspapers.com and add them to the draft. CNMall41 (talk) 19:57, 27 March 2024 (UTC)
