With change on the horizon at Langston and the other DC publics, we wanted to hear from Ernie Andrews, who has been working in some capacity at the historic course for five decades and counting. 

Ernie has seen it all and played with them all. Langston Golf Course was once a destination for golfers of all types and was affectionately known as the mecca for black golf on the east coast. There are not many people as qualified to talk about the history here and very few as deserving to have input on its future.
