The Dwyer Family at the 2006 GCF Program Launch Sixth Annual Jack Dwyer Golf Tournament : A Great Event for a Great Cause

Mark your calendar for the Sixth Annual Jack Dwyer Golf Tournament and Silent Auction (JDGT)! The event is taking place Monday, June 11, at the Trophy Club Apalachee in Dacula, located at 1008 Dacula Road. Each year, all tournament proceeds benefit GCF.

“The Georgia Cancer Foundation deeply appreciates the hard work of the entire Dwyer family, the sponsors, teams, and silent auction donors and participants who make the Jack Dwyer Golf Tournament bigger and better each year,” said Brenda Horne, Executive Director of GCF.

JDGT is held in the memory of Katherine A. Dwyer, who succumbed to lung cancer on December 26, 2000. She was Jack’s wife of 42 years, mother of seven children, and grandmother of 13.

The tournament, which has been a sold-out success the past three years, is always held on the Monday that follows Cancer Hope & Remembrance Observance Weekend (CHROW), with hopes to inspire other families to hold similar events in honor of a loved one affected by cancer. So far, the annual event has raised over $100,000 for GCF.
