The
Golfers Granted Halfway House Drink Privilege at Windber Club
A Cambria County judge ruled that Windber Country Club may dispense beverages on its golf course at a halfway house in addition to the clubhouse. The decision allows drinks along the course while striking down the club’s June 1976 bicentennial year license application. Judge McWilliams said a country club license covers the golf course and halfway house, essential for golfer refreshment and comfort. The ruling preserves the inherent right to provide beverages on the grounds, distinguishing it from restaurant or hotel licenses.
