your family, your friends.
This is an opportunity for every Canadian to
honour our country's past, our fathers and grandfathers... and play the game we love.
honour our country's past, our fathers and grandfathers... and play the game we love.
First, a quick story:

But so many Canadians don't know what happened to their fathers, grandfathers & uncles 'over there'.
"Beaches and Bunkers" is for those who want to learn the story of our vets' experience in 1944-45. And it's for those who want to enjoy the company of others who are learning too... while we play the game our fathers and grandfathers loved.
"Beaches and Bunkers" is:
- An escorted nine day tour of France and Belgium and covering key '39-'45 locations and battles.... PLUS Vimy and other highlights.... PLUS four games of golf (if you're a golfer!)
- For the sons and daughters, granddaughters and grandsons of the soldiers who landed on Juno Beach
- Free afternoons to wander key sites... like Dieppe, the Bayeux tapestry etc.
- Wonderful group dinners meeting local officials who warmly welcome 'The Canadians'
- Golf clubs provided. Just bring your shoes and your favourite 'can't be lost' ball!
- Connecting with like-minded Canadians who have a thirst to know what happened 70 years ago... who also love the game of golf

CD and me. |
My name is Robb Lucy, and I'm the son of a Canadian vet. I took my father back to the beaches of Normandy for the 50th Anniversary, and we followed the 'tour' he took 50 years earlier. This time he used his three iron as a cane. We visited many of the spots where his experiences scarred him, shaped his character and confirmed his philosophy of life. I'm pleased to see so many of us at our local cenotaphs each November 11, but saddened so few really understand what happened 70 years ago. May this tour be an admonition for you not to let the stories of your parents and grandparents disappear. These experiences forged their tools for life. And it is with those tools they raised us.
