Staff Accountant II Job at The Minikahda Club

The Minikahda Club Minneapolis, MN 55416

Founded in 1898, The Minikahda Club is the oldest country club west of the Mississippi and a premier club in the region. The City of Minneapolis has grown up around the Club. A group of young picnickers were so impressed by the spot they found atop a hill overlooking Lake Bde Maka Ska, they acquired the land and set out to form a club for social functions and golf. Today, The Minikahda Club is a year-round full-service club with a vast offering of social, dining and sport activities. The name Minikahda comes from the Dakotah, a combination of two words meaning, “by the side of the water.” The Club logo, in fact, depicts a Native American shield, similar to the artifact framed in the Clubhouse.

The Minikahda Club has approximately 1,275 members, comprising approximately 475 families and a single class of membership. To better prepare the Club for the future, a comprehensive

Campus Plan was approved in 2018. As part of that plan, the Club completed a

re-grassing of its historic Donald Ross-designed golf course and replaced the

golf shop with a new building that provides a year-round practice facility. The

classic Ross design has played host to a number of major events including the

1916 US Open, the 1927 US Amateur, the Walker Cup in 1957, the Women's Amateur in

1988, the Curtis Cup in 1998, and the US Senior Amateur in 2017. The course is

ranked among the best in the state by Golf Digest and was ranked #102 in

Golfweek's Top classic courses in 2020.

The Staff Accountant will prepare and maintain financial records to track the organization’s assets, liabilities, profit and loss, tax liabilities, and other related financial activities.
