For the month of June, in honour of National Indigenous History Month, we are taking the time to recognize the history, heritage, resilience, and diversity of First Nations, Inuit and Métis Peoples across Canada. At Shaughnessy, we are especially proud to recognize and respect our unique connection to the Musqueam People, on whose traditional and ancestral land our Club resides.

On April 15th, eight staff members of our culinary team developed and presented their own signature chicken burger at the inaugural Burger War. It was a great opportunity to showcase individual style, encourage collaboration, and bring some fun, competitive spirit into the kitchen. Five judges voted for the best burger, and the winner’s burger from the competition is being offered to members as one of the May features.

We recently hit a major milestone. April 26th, 2026, marked 115 years since Shaughnessy was officially established in 1911.
At 115 years, what stands out is not just the history, but the number of points where members have made decisions that prioritized the long-term over the short-term.
The course itself, designed by A.V. Macan, was his final championship-length design in Canada and arguably his greatest. That detail is often overlooked, but it speaks to the significance of what was built here. From a championship perspective, Shaughnessy has hosted multiple Professional Canadian Open events, and most recently the 2023 CPKC Women’s Open.
What started as a golf club has steadily expanded over time, most notably with the addition of tennis in 1978, along with continued growth across dining, fitness, and Club events. Rather than one major shift, it has been a steady build that reflects how members use the Club today.

30 years ago today, the world of professional tennis landed right here at Shaughnessy! On April 27, 1996, we kicked off the Fed Cup World Group II tie between Canada and the Czech Republic. It’s been three decades since legendary Jana Novotná showcased her masterclass on our courts.
