The Seaview Country Club is a Country Club, Hotel, and Golf Course located in Galloway, New Jersey. Seaview was founded as the “Seaview Golf Club” in 1914 by Clarence H. Geist, a public utility magnate from Indiana who also founded the Boca Raton Country Club in Boca Raton, Florida. Early in its history, Seaview was considered a prime golfing location on the East Coast. Seaview even hosted the PGA Championship in 1942. This collection was transferred to Stockton University’s Richard E. Bjork Library Special Collections in 2010, shortly after the University purchased the Country Club. This collection includes a variety of materials, including memos and letters to and from club management, estimates and invoices for building renovations and golf course construction, materials guests and members would receive during their stays and the club, photographs, and various newspaper clippings and historical documents from throughout the Club’s history.
