Welcome to the Gary H Dietrich Memorial "DO OVER" Golf
Tournament website.
Gary Dietrich, passed away on March 1, 2006 after a hard fought battle with
cancer. Many of you had a chance to play with Gary over the years and
probably realized what a unique individual he was. His passion for the game
of golf and his zest for life left an impression on the people he met and
played with.
To
honor Gary and what he meant to Hawktree we are planning the 3rd annual golf
event on Thursday September 18th, 2008 at Hawktree Golf Club.
The
two things that are significant in the event are the “Do Over” format and ND
Teen Challenge. Those of you who had an opportunity to play with Gary know
that he was likely to throw down another ball after a poorly hit shot for a
“Do Over”. The format we have put together will allow each player to “Do
Over” a shot of their choice on each hole.
The proceeds from the event will benefit North Dakota Teen Challenge, a
cause Gary was just beginning to be involved with when his illness struck.
Teen Challenge helps people, young and old; who have found themselves
addicted to drugs or alcohol and are seeking help. They are filling a
growing need in the community and have one of the highest success rates in
the nation for keeping their graduating students free from their
addictions. You can check their site at:

We
would like to invite you to come out and support this event in honor of Gary
and a very worthwhile cause, North Dakota Teen Challenge.
Thank you for your support.
