Who was Cici Case?

Cici Case was new to the game of golf when she joined the newly formed EWGA Fort Wayne Chapter in 2009. She was a city attorney for Fort Wayne, married to the love of her life, Doug, and had five children she adored. She had a zest and enthusiasm for life that was contagious. Cici was a much-loved friend, mentor and confidant to fellow golfers. Sadly, in October 2010 Cici lost her battle with cancer. This was not only a blow to her family at home but also to her EWGA family. Following her death, the Fort Wayne Chapter of the EWGA established this award to honor her memory.

The Cici Case Enthusiasm Award is to be given annually to a selected member of the Fort Wayne Chapter of The LPGA Amateur Golf Association. The Award will be presented at the annual anniversary dinner meeting each year. The nominee will demonstrate the qualities listed under Criteria below. The nominee will be presented with a gift, and her name will be engraved on a special commemorative “traveling” plaque, that will be kept by the recipient for the year and given to the next recipient at the annual anniversary dinner meeting in the fall.

• Convey the vision, mission and values of The LPGA Amateur Golf Association :connecting women to learn, play, and enjoy golf and enriching the lives of women through golf.
• Convey the spirit of Cici Case, that is, an enthusiasm and passion for life, treating fellow members with respect and compassion, and giving a listening and trustful ear to all.
• Be an active member of the association, not only in weekly League, but also in activities throughout the year.
• Show enthusiasm and generosity by volunteering for events, giving of her time to The LPGA Amateur Golf Association in capacities beyond expectations.
