GIVING
HONOR & EDUCATE
As a golf experience, American Dunes Golf Club is a great day out; as a source of true inspiration, it is far more than that
T
he Jack Nicklaus signature golf course in Grand Haven, Michigan, is only part of the story here, where Lt Col Dan Rooney’s vision for a club that commemorates the birthplace of Folds of Honor and deeply honors American Veterans came to life just over a year ago. Benefiting Rooney’s Folds of Honor Foundation, which provides educational scholarships to the dependents of military members who have fallen or been disabled while serving in the United States Armed Forces, American Dunes uses its beautiful landscape and the social nature of golf to tell the stories of those willing to pay the ultimate price. Now, a new Wall of Honor is being created to help tell those stories, providing a lasting way to honor heroes and reminding us all that freedom isn’t free.
