From Fields to Fairways: The Story of Sirocco Golf Club

Book excerpt: With our fourth generation now making their home on Duffin Farms, family roots here run deep As the incessant growth of the City of Calgary continued to encroach we realized that some proactive planning was in order if we wanted to remain on the property The decision to "kick out the cattle and bring in the golfers" was one that was not taken lightly. The development of the Sirocco Golf Course and Clubhouse was a massive undertaking for our family This book documents a few of my recollections of how it came to be, how it affected Duffin Farms, and some other "sidebars" as seen through my lens
