Golf Camp at Stoneham-et-Tewkesbury, QC

Soldier On will host a Golf Camp in collaboration with Stoneham Golf Club and AGFC Golf Academy on June 20-22. This activity will bring together both serving and retired ill/injured CAF members, allowing participants to connect through peer support and encourage a healthy and active lifestyle. The Quebec Golf Camp will contribute as a tool to wellness and recovery for the participants.

Participants will be accompanied by qualified PGA instructors from AFGC Golf Academy throughout the day. Within the three days, the following subjects will be covered: club grip, swing, short game, long range game and decision-making.

Comfortable, warm and rain clothes are required because camp will be held outside for all three days. Participants are asked to bring their own personal equipment but rental will be available those you need it.

*You must have a face cover to enter the Club House and get your lunch.

Assistance throughout the event will be provided courtesy of Stoneham Golf Club and AGFC.
