Arrowsmith golf club keeps its founder\u2019s vision alive 30 years later<\/p>\n

Published 6:00 pm Sunday, August 30, 2026<\/p>\n

Qualicum Beach golf and country club offers smooth greens, breathtaking views and community spirit<\/p>\n

Pat Jiggins and his family work every day to provide an unforgettable golf experience at Arrowsmith Golf and Country Club. In doing so, they\u2019re also honouring a Qualicum legacy.<\/p>\n

\u201cFounder Mike Jiggins, who passed away 12 years ago, gave us so many great values in the business he made. We strive to continue this legacy through our daily actions,\u201d says Pat Jiggins, co-owner.<\/p>\n

Arrowsmith celebrated 30 years in June and will honour Mike on his birthday, Sept. 9.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Every year, the club raises money in Mike\u2019s name for scholarships for local high school students. As one of his lifelong initiatives, nine per cent of proceeds day are contributed.<\/p>\n

Privileged to welcome the community for 30 years, the Arrowsmith Golf family is looking forward to what comes next.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cOver the next 30 years, we\u2019ll continue to provide first-class enjoyment, community support and unforgettable memories!\u201d<\/p>\n

A tour around the course<\/p>\n

Designed for year-round play the course features an 18-hole, par 61 layout, with two Par 5s, three Par 4s and 13 Par 3s.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Hole 12 will take your breath away at 170 yards and an elevated tee 40 feet above the green, showcasing unforgettable Qualicum scenery.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe want our guests to have an affordable and enjoyable experience they won\u2019t forget,\u201d Jiggins says.<\/p>\n
