The five charter members of this elite group, all "legends" who made their "mark" in Wisconsin amateur golf circles, were E.P.
"Ned" Allis, Dick Cavanagh, Lynford Lardner, Billy Sixty, Sr., and Wilford Wehrle.
In 1980, Archie Dadian of Whitnall Park GC became the first public links player to be elected to the Hall of Fame.
At present, plaques of all inductees, which outline their achievements along with an engraved likeness, are on display at Golf House of Wisconsin[1] in West Allis.
The WSGA Hall of Fame Committee is composed of WSGA directors, golf professionals, women representatives, public links players and media delegates, who meet annually to review candidates.
