Golf legend Arnold Palmer’s family gives new life to a vintage barn.

Nature's Course

The tiny hamlet of Latrobe, Pennsylvania, can make some pretty big claims. It’s the site of the original Rolling Rock brewery. It’s the birthplace of golf legend, Arnold Palmer. And St. Vincent College, the prestigious Catholic university that’s the town’s pride and joy, serves double duty as the six-time Super Bowl champion Pittsburgh Steelers’ summertime training camp. In fact, St. Vincent and Arnold Palmer are even more closely connected, because along the campus grounds lies a restored timber-barn-turned-education-center that pays homage to the Palmer family: The Winnie Palmer Nature Reserve.
