Borderline Golf

"Will the only golf course that sits on both sides of the Canada-United States border fall victim to enhanced border security? The future of the Aroostook Valley Country Club – which has served both Americans and Canadians for 81 years – is in doubt if United States Customs border patrol officers enforce entry regulations at the club.

For more than eight decades, Aroostook Valley has been a unique location. Hugging the U.S. - Canada border, both Canadians and Americans have used Brown Road, a small country lane on the American side, to travel to the club. Once their vehicles are parked, golfers from both Canada and the United States walked back across the border to play golf in Canada before returning to their vehicles in the United States."
