History
The Town of Cherry Hills Village was incorporated on July 19, 1945. The community was named for a grove of cherry trees near the original town site. On April 16, 2019, the city council voted to rename the 111-year old Swastika Acres subdivision (a common Southwestern and Native American symbol at the time which also pre-dated Nazi usage) as "Old Cherry Hills".
Cherry Hills Country Club has hosted three U.S. Opens (1938, 1960, 1978), two PGA Championships (1941, 1985), one U.S. Women's Open (2005), and three U.S. Amateurs (1990, 2012, 2023).
